Description

The Barbara M. Iannoni Scholarship is offered in honor of Barbara M. Iannoni, a 20-year employee of MassCPAs who retired in June 2018. It was Barbara's passion and work ethic that led to the creation of the Society's many high school and college outreach programs, and her devotion to helping support students pursue their own passion that led to the development of the Educational Foundation's Scholarship Program. This scholarship is awarded to a student that embodies Barbara Iannoni's work ethic, spirit and dedication to the accounting profession. Applicants must be a graduate student or an undergraduate student who has completed at least the first semester of their sophomore year. They must demonstrate academic excellence; financial need; and have the intention to pursue an accounting career in Massachusetts. Applicants for the MassCPAs Scholarship Program must attend a college or university in Massachusetts or attend a college or university out-of-state with a permanent address in Massachusetts and be enrolled in at least 9 credits during the Summer 2026 semester or Fall 2026 semester. A recommendation from an accounting professor, academic advisor, job supervisor, or mentor is required. Applicants must also submit a written essay or a video in which they describe what has shaped their decision to pursue a career in accounting. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Educational Foundation of the Massachusetts Society of Certified Public Accountants for more information.
