InVEST, the school to work program sponsored by the Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of America, said it has awarded 42 scholarships totaling $43,000 to students pursuing insurance-related degrees.
The awards were given after 150 scholarship hopefuls from across the country submitted essays describing the influence and benefits the InVEST program had on their educational plans.
InVEST said the quality of the essay, combined with the applicant's grade-point average, extracurricular activities and college entrance exam scores, were factors in selecting the recipients.
