Unlocking Entrepreneurial Opportunities

No applications are being accepted at this time

The Board of Advisors Scholarship Fund was created to support the Center’s vision of empowering communities to create and sustain generational wealth through franchising and to advance the Center’s mission of unlocking entrepreneurial opportunities for historically underrepresented populations. As industry leaders across a range of franchises, our Board understands the transformative power of education. Our scholarship fund will reward deserving learners seeking to further their franchise business education by taking graduate, undergraduate, or executive education (non-credit) courses in the College of Business at the University of Louisville. All are encouraged to apply.
