Becker Professional Review Announces 2009 Scholarships for Success Winners
Becker Professional Review, a subsidiary of DeVry Inc. (NYSE: DV), announced that it has selected 50 deserving students for its Scholarships for Success program. The winners will receive a Becker CPA Review scholarship to aid in their preparation for the CPA Exam.
The program, now in its second year, offers U.S. accounting professors the opportunity to nominate their students for the scholarship. The nominees must demonstrate high moral character and leadership qualities, aspire to achieve significant career goals, plan to sit for the CPA Exam in 2009, meet CPA Exam requirements in a timely manner, and need financial assistance to prepare for the exam.
"We are delighted to continue the Scholarships for Success program,” said Tom Vucinic, president of Becker Professional Review. "In these difficult economic times, Becker is stepping up to give these 50 well-deserving students much needed assistance as they strive to fulfill their career goals.”
"Receiving this scholarship is a tremendous honor not only for me, but for my entire tribal community in the Bay Mills Indian Community" said Allard Teeple, a scholarship winner from Michigan State University. "With so few Native Americans pursuing accounting degrees, it is all the more rewarding to be recognized and given this wonderful opportunity to prepare for the CPA Exam and get my accounting career off to a great start.”
"It’s quite rewarding to bestow due recognition to one of my students through the Scholarships for Success program.” said Janice Cobb, accounting professor at Texas Christian University. "In these challenging financial times, Becker is truly making a difference in students’ lives.”
