2026 Conference Scholarships
Scholarships available for 2026 ConferenceReady to explore your financial future?Are you a current college student interested in the government finance sector or special districts finance? Do you have limited funding for conference attendance but want others to have the experience? Are they staff that have not yet joined CSMFO or attended a conference, and you’d like to see them join and participate? If so, we would like for you or your staff to join us at the 2026 Annual Conference in Palm Springs! CSMFO’s Board of Directors has set aside funds towards a limited number of scholarships, to cover the cost of conference registration fees, for first time attendees and students. Criteria must be met to qualify for the scholarships. Please note that the scholarships do not cover travel expenses for the conference such as flights, parking, and lodging costs, or the Tuesday pre-conference sessions, special events, and are not reimbursed by CSMFO. If you are interested in pre-conference sessions, you will need to register separately and pay the respective fees for those events. Mentor Program Student and First Time Attendee scholarship recipients will participate in our conference mentor program! You’ll be introduced to one of our seasoned CSMFO conference goers who will be able to assist with any questions you may have. Or, just to be another resource or colleague to connect with at the conference. More information will be provided closer to the event.
