Merritt Scholars Program
The Merritt Scholars program, started in 2009, was created to attract the next generation of affordable housing finance and development professionals.
This program includes a $10,000 scholarship for undergraduate and graduate students, and a meaningful opportunity to learn more about the affordable housing field via access to a mentor, fully paid attendance at local and statewide industry conferences, and engagement with industry leaders.
