Professional Scholarship Applications: Check Them Out!!

There are several "named" professional scholarships available: Canal Insurance Company, CPCU-Loman Education Foundation and the ISFA general scholarship fund. A candidate does not have to apply for a specific scholarship. The professional application on the ISFA website is the only application required. The Scholarship Review Committee and the Foundation’s Board of Directors will select candidates for a specific named scholarship based on the criteria for that award. Submitting a general scholarship application is all that is necessary. Should a candidate request consideration for a specific named scholarship it would not exclude them from consideration for another scholarship should their application match the criteria.

ALL applications must be submitted on the published form, found on the Foundation’s website: http://www.inssfa.org/index.html, or your application will not be considered. Mail applications and all supporting documentation to: Insurance Scholarship Foundation of America, P.O. Box 866 , Hendersonville , NC 28793-0866 . Applications are available online at http://www.inssfa.org/index.html. If you have any additional questions about applying for an ISFA professional scholarship, please email us at foundation@inssfa.org .
