Scholarship Opportunities

The IREM-LA Scholarship

An IREM LA Scholarship helps reduce the financial burden of pursuing your property management education and professional designations, including the CPM® (Certified Property Manager), ARM® (Accredited Residential Manager), and ACoM® (Accredited Commercial Manager).

Each applicant may receive up to $1,500 in lifetime scholarship awards, which can be applied toward IREM LA course offerings. All courses funded through a scholarship must be completed within 12 months of applying.

Before applying through the IREM LA Chapter, applicants are required to first apply for a scholarship with IREM International. The amount awarded by IREM International must be disclosed prior to receiving any additional funds from IREM LA. Please wait to submit your IREM LA scholarship application until you have received a response from IREM International.

How to Apply

An IREM LA Scholarship is available to current members, including CPM® Candidates, ACoM, ARM®, Associate, and Student members, who are up to date on their national and chapter dues and pursuing an IREM property management designation.

Scholarship applications open at the start of each calendar year when new property management education offerings in Los Angeles are posted on iremla.org. Please allow several weeks for application review, and reach out to our team at info@iremla.org with any questions.
