The Actuarial Diversity Scholarship Has Merged With STEM Stars

Dear Friends,

To enhance our impact on diversity within the actuarial profession, the Actuarial Diversity Scholarship has transformed into the STEM Stars Actuarial Scholars Program.

Through STEM Stars, we identify, recruit, and support high school students committed to pursuing a career as an actuary. Twenty students are selected each year to receive financial support as well as mentoring, tutoring, immersion experiences, and exposure to internships and job shadowing opportunities. By providing higher-touch, holistic support that starts in high school, extends through college, and continues through exams and ultimately into a career, we believe we can help build a robust talent pipeline and strengthen the community of diverse students entering the actuarial profession.

We extend a heartfelt thank you to our reviewers, mentors, supporters, and recipients of the Actuarial Diversity Scholarship. Nearly twenty years ago we took our first steps to begin to improve diversity in the profession. Now, together we will take bold new steps to bring new people, new perspectives, and new ideas to the actuarial community.
