Arch will provide scholarships, internships and fellowships to the students of the university
GREENSBORO, N.C.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Arch Mortgage Insurance Company (Arch MI, the Company) today announced the expansion of its Arch MI Scholars Program to the University of North Carolina Greensboro (UNCG).
This scholarship program is designed to provide financial support and job experience for high-achieving students with demonstrated financial need, and the program is centered around the communities local to the Company’s headquarters in downtown Greensboro, North Carolina.
First announced in 2020, the program began as a partnership with the nation’s largest historically black university, North Carolina A&T State University (N.C. A&T).
“We’ve seen great success with our program at N.C. A&T and are proud to expand to another prestigious local university,” said Michael Schmeiser, President and CEO of Arch MI. “We know that bringing together diverse perspectives leads to better decision-making and idea generation, so it is a business imperative that we continue to foster the growth of the next generation of talent. By providing scholarships, internships and fellowship opportunities for these students, we can help make a difference in leveling the playing field for need-based students within our local community.”
As part of its four-year commitment to UNCG, Arch MI will provide scholarships and real-world job experience to selected students. Chosen in the fall of their junior years, Arch MI scholars will have the opportunity to complete a paid internship with the company during both their junior and senior years. They will also be awarded a $15,000 scholarship, spread over two years, to help fund their remaining studies. Upon graduation, the scholars will have the option to pursue a one-year paid fellowship at Arch MI, with the possibility of converting to a full-time role depending on business needs.
The program focuses on students with majors in fields relevant to the insurance industry. These include accounting/finance, actuarial sciences, business information systems, data analytics, risk, information technology and computer science. At UNCG, these majors are concentrated within the College of Arts & Sciences and the Bryan School of Business & Economics.
“The Arch MI Scholars program at UNCG is a win-win for both the university and Arch MI,” UNCG Chancellor Franklin D. Gilliam, Jr., said. “UNCG’s students offer excellent talent that our region’s corporations value, and this innovative program will help propel many of our students to outstanding careers.”
UNCG students interested in scholarship opportunities should reach out to the Office of Financial Aid and Scholarships.
