Hi Cole,
Great job on your Accounting 12 mark! We offer a $2,000 team scholarship to the winners of our annual CMA High School Case Competition. Unfortunately the deadline has passed to enter the 2012 competition. However, if you plan on taking Business Administration at a university or college in BC, be sure to check out our Post-Secondary Case Competition for first and second year business students. The competition runs every fall and winners of this competition will receive a $2,500 team scholarship.
Good luck!
