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 fees and dues.
Requirements: Applicants must have a current Wisconsin Real Estate license, be affiliated with a participating RASCW Broker/Office, and be an active RASCW member.
PLEASE NOTE: If an applicant receives the scholarship, RASCW membership dues and fees that have already been paid will be reimbursed. Any remaining scholarship benefits/funds based on the RASCW prorated dues schedule will be applied to the following year’s renewal dues.
