About This Opportunity

The Jim and Bess Townsend Hanks Scholarship is awarded to undergraduate students in the Department of Accountancy and Finance at Eastern Illinois University who are considering a career in insurance.

The scholarship is awarded annually in the spring and disbursed in the fall. Students may reapply each year for the scholarship, though renewal is not automatic. The award amount varies.
