All Deloitte Tax Diversity Scholarships for fall 2023 have been awarded. Every M.S. in Taxation applicant is still eligible for other program-based scholarships. If you would like to be notified of future scholarship opportunities, we encourage you to fill out our inquiry form.
The College of Business Administration and Department of Accounting are proud to join with Deloitte Tax LLP to provide financial support for full-tuition scholarships toward the LMU Master of Science in Taxation.
There is great demand in the accounting profession for tax talent. In the spirit of supporting a racially and ethnically diverse student population, and to strengthen the pipeline of diverse talent entering the accounting profession, this scholarship program endeavors to consider applicants from underrepresented demographic groups including, but not limited to, students from Historically Black Colleges and Universities as well as Hispanic Serving Institutions. (Most California State University and University of California campuses are designated Hispanic Serving Institutions.) Students selected for this scholarship will have 50% of their tuition paid for by Deloitte and 50% paid for by LMU.
