Selection Criteria
Eligible students will be selected using a matrix qualification system. Applicants will be evaluated on a point system based on eligibility requirements, strength of personal statement, financial need, relevance of internship to the insurance industry, etc. Those that meet or exceed a predetermined total score will be selected, if funds are still available.
Applicants will be notified of the decision on an ongoing basis as applications are received and scored, until all funds have been awarded.
Application Deadlines
Students are encouraged to apply early because funds are limited. Application batches will be reviewed and candidates selected on a two-week rolling basis to ensure fair opportunity of fund disbursement. Please contact
