Urban Financial Services Coalition & Pacific Coast Banking School

‘Rise Above the Rest™’ Partnership

 

Seattle, WA – Pacific Coast Banking School (PCBS) and the Urban Financial Services Coalition (UFSC) are partners in promoting advanced education for diverse and high-potential leaders in the financial services industry.

For 75 years, Pacific Coast Banking School (PCBS) has offered a premier 25 month graduate-level leadership and financial management education program focused on the banking industry.  Over 10,000 bankers have graduated from this school, with hundreds currently in key leadership roles across the country.  Highly qualified participants in the banking and financial services community benefit from outstanding instruction, cutting-edge curriculum, and the diverse student body from organizations of all sizes.

UFSC and Pacific Coast Banking School have partnered by jointly fund a significant three year scholarship to PCBS.  Students enroll in the program, which includes a two-week resident session each August for three years held on the University of Washington campus.  The 2013 session dates are August 18 – 30 and the tuition is $4,475, which includes course work, single room accommodations, meals and administrative and faculty support for intersession work.  Scholarship amounts will be dependent upon the contribution from the FSC-PS Charitable Foundation, which PCBS will match up to a certain amount on an annual basis.  The remaining tuition balance is the responsibility of the applicant.

The UFSC goal to create leadership opportunities for those in the financial services industry is enhanced by this partnership with Pacific Coast Banking School, one of the largest banking schools in the country.  Anyone interested in the ‘Rise Above the Rest™’ scholarship opportunity or the PCBS program is encouraged to visit the PCBS website at www.thePCBS.org.  Applicants are encouraged to submit applications by May 15, 2013.
