Minority Scholarship

For over 20 years, RASCW has supported diversity in the real estate industry with the Minority Scholarship. We believe that with more minorities involved in providing real estate services, there will be an increase in the acquisition of real estate by minority buyers, which will help build stronger and more diverse communities. This program was developed to help achieve this by providing financial assistance and support to minorities who are interested in pursuing a career in real estate – recipients receive more than $1,600 in waived start up fees and dues. Click the links below to learn more about the scholarship and to complete the application. At minimum, applicants should have passed the Real Estate Licensing exam, and have an offer of affiliation with a brokerage prior to submitting the application.
