OLA Study Material Stipend

OLA understands some of you may have trouble paying for exam study materials, especially during these difficult times where many families have lost income due to the economic disruptions caused by COVID-19.

Passing actuarial exams takes a lot of time and dedication. There are various study manuals and online courses designed to help you learn the material and provide practice problems to prepare you for the exams.

For this reason, OLA will be providing $200 to eligible candidates who need financial support and are selected for this award, to be used towards the exam material of their choice to study for exams P/1, FM/2 and IFM.

Eligibility: Latino actuarial candidates studying for exams P/1, FM/2 and IFM who plan to purchase their study materials within 45 days or who purchased study materials no more than 60 days prior to submitting this application. Applicants need to live or study in the U.S. This stipend is not designed for individuals with full-time Jobs in an actuarial position with exam support.

Payment: OLA will send a $200 check to the candidates who apply for this stipend and are selected for this award regardless of the exam material selected. The number of awards given will be subject to funding. Winners will need to send the receipt of the exam material purchased. If you haven’t purchased the study material and are selected for this stipend, you can submit the receipt of the study material purchased afterwards.
