InVEST National Scholarships
As an InVEST Class, your students are eligible to InVEST Scholarship dollars!
Each spring, InVEST awards thousands of dollars in scholarships to program graduates who plan to enter the insurance industry as their career. Whether they plan to enroll in a community college or university, or are going straight from the classroom to a career and need assistance with insurance exam fees, InVEST has scholarships ranging from $500 - $2,000 to assist with costs.
We encourage InVEST teachers to promote the scholarship program to InVEST students not only with reminders and letter home to their parents but also by incorporating the essay writing into your classes as a graded assignment.
Applicants must be majoring in insurance, risk management, actuarial science or business with the intention of entering an insurance career, or they must have plans to pursue an insurance certification with a college education. All monies are sent directly to the school or exam institution.
Listed below are the items required in an InVEST Scholarship submission:
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. We look forward to receiving your applications.
