Each year, the MOCPA Educational Foundation awards approximately $30,000 in scholarships to students who are majoring in accounting at Missouri universities/colleges. Please encourage any aspiring CPAs you know to apply. High school seniors are given $500 to use toward their accounting education. Recipients of the college scholarships are awarded $1,000.

The 2023-24 scholarship application period closed on February 29. Winners will be announced in March 2024 and recognized at a MOCPA event.
