2020 IABA Scholarship and Boot Camp Application Deadline March 31st

The International Association of Black Actuaries (IABA) has recently launched its Scholarship and Boot Camp applications!

The application deadline for both programs is March 31, 2020.

IABA Scholarship

The IABA Scholarship Program provides scholarships at the undergraduate and graduate level for black students who are interested in pursuing actuarial careers.

Scholarships are awarded on the basis of individual merit. The amount of the award typically ranges from $2,000-$5,000 and is based on full-time status during the upcoming school year.

The scholarship program is available to students of African descent originating from the United States, Canada, the Caribbean and African nations.

IABA Boot Camp

The IABA Actuarial Boot Camp is the premier program for transitioning black actuarial students to the actuarial industry. The majority of our past attendees report that the Boot Camp was instrumental in confirming their interest in the career and helping them through the interview process. In many cases, they were introduced to their employer through their Boot Camp participation.  Visit the website for more information (https://www.blackactuaries.org/page/2020IABABootCamp)
