Scholarships for Future Actuaries
The Actuarial Foundation supports the next generation of actuaries through our STEM Stars Scholarship Program, which provides financial assistance and mentoring to help high school students pursuing careers in mathematics and actuarial science. In addition to our own scholarships, the Foundation also shares information about scholarships offered by our partner organizations that support our mission and the actuarial profession. These scholarships not only help offset the cost of education but also serve as a prestigious recognition by a highly respected profession.
