  • CFA Women's Scholarships deadline: Short notice from CFA Institute, but Women's Scholarship applications will close tomorrow (21 Sep) for a decision by 19 October. This means if you apply now and get this scholarship, you will still be in time for Feb22 or May22 registrations. Next cycle of application is in November. We expect similar application cycles for other types of scholarship.
  • Jul'21 exam results: We have the latest Jul'21 passing score estimates and pass rates updated. Along with advice on how to update your resume correctly with your latest CFA program status.
  • FRM reminders and MPS estimates: for those considering Part 1 November or Part 2 December exams, final registration date is 30 September. We also estimated the minimum passing scores for P1 May and July 2021 exams with our survey.
