Tomorrow’s accounting leaders are progressing through the pipeline, and it’s more important than ever that our community help them realize the successes they can enjoy! SCACPA has a new opportunity for members to connect one-on-one with students and showcase the value of a CPA career!
Students can join SCACPA for $50 and take advantage of a multitude of benefits. They may also choose to have their membership sponsored. That’s where you come in.
When you opt to sponsor a membership, SCACPA will connect you with a student. This provides you with an incredible opportunity to provide a sounding board and a solid first impression of the profession!
Our student membership program is more than just a sponsorship; it’s an investment in the future of the CPA profession. For a mere $50, your sponsorship could lead you to meet the future leaders in accounting and potentially discover your next standout hire.

I have truly enjoyed participating in the [student sponsorship program] at SCACPA. I was paired with Adrianna, who is a student excelling in her studies and extracurricular activities, as well as working and interning to build her work experience. Adrianna is an outstanding individual, sharing her many talents in a variety of ways and diligently learning all she can about accounting and the business world. Getting to know Adrianna has made me hopeful about the next generation of CPAs and how effective they will be at continuing to develop the accounting profession.

The SCACPA [student sponsorship program] has been a huge blessing to me. By simply agreeing to be paired [through the student sponsorship program], I was connected with a CPA who has both guided me as an aspiring CPA, but also as a person. I have learned so much from Camie Patterson and have been so grateful for her guidance, advice, and personal perspective on the CPA journey. I would highly recommend the SCACPA [student sponsorship program] to anyone who wants to connect with a successful CPA, learn from someone with experience, and gain a sponsor who cares.
