Exam Scholarship

The AICP Scholarship Program offers assistance to one individual annually who may defer taking, or is unable to take, the AICP exam because of its high cost. Scholarship recipients pay reduced fees to AICP as follows:

  • First time AICP applicants: $125 (combined $60 application and $65 exam fee)
  • Previously approved AICP applicants: $65 (exam fee only)

To qualify you must submit a written explanation of financial hardship (including financial hardship caused by a budget cutback in a firm or agency): 

  • Members of ethnic or racial minorities shall be given preference.
  • The applicant selected will be otherwise unlikely to take the exam without the reduced fee.
  • The applicant's employer will not subsidize the exam fee.

Study materials
Below are attached documents to assist in the study for the exam. Including the AICP reading list, and other resources found on their website. The Planetizen Prep Course is also a good source of information. 

The Chapter also holds a study session, usually during the conferences, to assist in preparation. This presentation can be found below.

The chapter also has a limited supply of study CD's. If you are taking the exam this round, contact jeffery.leuenberger@gmail.com to receive a copy.
