Business Leaders Scholars Program
A portion of the sponsorship dollars raised for the Business Leader of the Year Award will provide scholarship assistance to students at Florida Atlantic University. The level of sponsorship will determine the number of scholarship awarded.

These scholarships will be made using the following criteria:

  • Awarded to students enrolled in the College of Business at FAU
  • Minimum 3.25 GPA 
  • Demonstrate leadership qualities through service

Students will be notified that they have received a scholarship named for the Business Leader of the Year sponsor and there will be an opportunity for the sponsor and the student to meet at our annual scholarship recognition breakfast.
