High School Graduates Receive 2024 LBEC College Scholarships
The Louisiana Bankers Education Council has awarded their annual college scholarships thanks to the generous support of LBA members. Each fall, LBEC offers cash scholarships to incoming freshmen who have at least one parent employed with a bank or if the student is employed with a bank in Louisiana. The students must enroll in an accredited Louisiana college or university with a declared major in a banking-related field. For more information on the scholarship, click here.
