PARTNERSHIPS
SCHOLARSHIP We are grateful to our corporate partners and donors. With their support, the School of Accountancy was able to award nearly $400,000 worth of scholarships and assistantships for the 2026-2027 academic year. Donors, students, and faculty will celebrate the accomplishment of awarded students, and network at the annual Honors Banquet in the fall. PCAOB Kennesaw State University nominated two exceptional students for academic scholarships from the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) for the 2026-2027 academic year. We are pleased to report that two students will be awarded scholarships in the amount of $15,000 each.
ACCOUNTING AND TECHNICAL FORUM The annual Accounting and Technical Forum is a longstanding partnership between the School of Accountancy and the North Atlanta Chapter of the Georgia Society of CPAs. Due to changes in CPE requirements, the SOA focused on technical and ethical practices to meet new standards. KSU faculty volunteer their time to make professional presentations to the chapter’s members that qualify as Continuing Professional Education credit. In return, the proceeds of the event are donated back to the School of Accountancy, totaling over $4,500 this year.
Our sponsorship program welcomed 43 companies this year. The commitment process is underway for the 2026-2027 academic year. Many more companies and CPA firms have already shown a newfound interest in the Partnership Program. The program represents over $200,000 in support with every partnership level including a component of scholarship funding. Partners can connect with students to recruit, network, and educate our SOA undergraduate and MAcc students about the benefits available in the accounting profession.
