  • for experienced appraisers (those with more than two years experience).

This year’s scholarships consist of four awards of $1,000.00. Two will be awarded to new appraisers or students and two to advanced appraisers. Monies can be applied to educational courses related to personal property appraising. To be eligible one must demonstrate financial need and fill out an application form. One need not be a member of a professional appraising organization.

One special scholarship will be offered this year. The Keith Ball Memorial Scholarship is an award of $750.00. This award honors the memory of a fine young man and will be awarded to one applicant who has less than two years of appraisal experience wishing to attend the ISA Antiques & Residential Contents Course. The application for this scholarship will come from the New Appraiser/Student category with the caveat that the applicant note they wish to take the ARC course.
