唯学网小编提醒：特许金融分析师CFA证书本身含金量还是很高的。1级虽然用处不是很大，难度也不大，但是如果在本科毕业时能够考过1级写在简历上能够增加很高的印象分，用人单位也会对你另眼向看。如果能考下2级，那基本找工作已经不成问题了，至少可以去证券公司当个研究员，或者金融机构资产管理部分当个辅助性职位。如果能够通过3级，那已经成很不错了，只要积累到足够的工作经验，那依然前途无量。希望本文对参加特许金融分析师考试的考生能有帮助。

Student CFA Scholarship Program
This program offers reduced costs for college or university students enrolling in the CFA Program.
Who is eligible to sponsor students?
A sponsoring professor must be a CFA charterholder in good standing and a full-time faculty member at the student’s university and must teach at least six credit hours per quarter or semester. Administrators must teach a minimum of three hours. The university must offer a U.S. bachelor's degree (or equivalent) or higher. Professors on leave or sabbatical from their primary university six months before the exam are not eligible. Professors may establish their own criteria for selecting student scholars. Discrimination on the basis of race, religion, gender, or nationality is prohibited. Suggestions for criteria include financial need, scholastic grades, or essays.
Who is eligible to apply for the scholarship?
Student scholarships are only available to new Level I candidates enrolling and registering for the first time. Applicants must be full-time college or university students in their final undergraduate year, scheduled to receive a U.S. bachelor’s degree or comparable non-U.S. degree, or full- or part-time graduate students. Applicants must attend the same university where the sponsoring professor teaches. Applicants must fulfill all CFA candidate requirements to enroll and must confirm receipt of their degree in writing to progress to the next exam.
How many scholarships can a professor award?
A professor may award a maximum of five student scholarships per fiscal year. Universities with more than one qualified professor on staff may award a maximum of 10 scholarships per fiscal year. Each fiscal year incorporates the December exam and the June exam of the following year.
What does the scholarship cover?
For the current exam offering, the CFA Program enrollment fee (if applicable) is waived and the exam registration fee is discounted. Student scholars pay only the cost of curriculum (December 2009 exam curriculum is US$220; June 2010 exam curriculum is US$225) plus any applicable taxes and import duties. The fee is non-refundable and non-transferable. Scholarships cannot be deferred to another exam offering.
Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Diners Club, and JCB are accepted. CFA Institute does not accept Discover, debit cards, or other cards and does not invoice for payment. Checks and money orders are accepted. If you have already enrolled and registered for the current exam offering, you may request a refund in the appropriate section of the Scholarship Verification Form.
