Management Scholarships

Any currently active National DECA member who intends to pursue a full-time two- or four-year course of study in marketing, merchandising or management may apply. The applicants may select any accredited institution/university offering careers in marketing, management or merchandising. The DECA Scholarship is merit based and is not based on financial need. However, if an applicant chooses, he or she may include a statement in support of financial need and it will be reviewed.

Scholarships are awarded only to students in the related fields of Horticulture, Floriculture, Landscape Design, City Planning, Land Management and allied subjects. The scholarships are awarded to juniors, seniors and graduate students.

The Western Union Foundation Global Scholarship Program (WU Scholars) is a program designed to support young people and their efforts to pursue a post-secondary education. Selected scholarship recipients will receive USD $2,500 each to contribute toward tuition or school fees at an accredited post-secondary institution and will be selected based on criteria relating to the program's three pillars: Perseverance, Aspiration, and Community. To be eligible, students must be seeking an undergraduate degree in one of the following categories: science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and business/entrepreneurship. The application, which requires a letter of recommendation and an academic transcript, opens Wednesday March 8th. The application deadline is Wednesday, April 12 at noon Eastern Standard Time.
