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® course offerings. All courses funded through a scholarship must be completed within 12 months of applying. Scholarships cannot be applied toward IREM®-LA workshops, seminars, or IREM® Skills Badges.

Before applying through the IREM®-LA Chapter, applicants are required to first apply for a scholarship with the IREM® Foundation. The amount awarded by the IREM® Foundation 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 the IREM® Foundation. Learn more about the scholarships offered by the IREM® Foundation below.
