Accounting Scholars Program

The Accounting Scholars program at Saint Louis University's Richard A. Chaifetz School of Business is an exclusive opportunity available only to entering first-year students whose high school scholastic achievements demonstrate superior academic potential. Accounting Scholars have access to exclusive events, receive priority consideration for accounting-only scholarships and participate in mentoring with members of SLU's Young Accounting Professionals Board.

Students apply for consideration for the Accounting Scholars Program after completing their application for admission to the University. The program is available to accounting majors; other applied majors (including business-still deciding) may apply to the program, but admission will be dependent on switching to the accounting major.
