Accenture American Indian Scholarship - Graduate & Undergraduate
The Accenture American Indian Scholarship fund meets a vital need for
American Indian and Alaska Native students seeking higher education
and requiring financial assistance. Accenture will award three types
of scholarships to high-achieving American Indian and Alaska Native
students seeking degrees and careers in fields of study including:
various engineering, computer science, operations management, finance,
marketing and other business oriented fields.

Accenture Scholars—three undergraduate scholarships, of $20,000 each
(each award at $5,000 per year for four years), will be awarded to
students pursuing a four-year degree.

Accenture Fellows—two graduate scholarships, of $15,000 each (each
award at $7,500 per year for two years), will be awarded to students
pursuing an master’s or doctorate degree.

Finalist Scholarship—Two undergraduate scholarships, of $8,000 each
(each award at $2,000 per year for four years) and two graduate
scholarships, of $5,000 each (each award at $2,500 per year for two
years).

In addition to the funding, scholarship recipients are eligible for
summer internships with Accenture, as first-year graduate students or
junior-year undergraduate students.

Applicants will be evaluated based on academic excellence,
demonstrated leadership ability, commitment to preserving American
Indian culture and communities, and proof of enrollment in a federally
recognized American Indian/Alaska Native tribe.
