The Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA) has announced that it would dedicate proceeds from its 3rd Annual Summit on Diversity and Inclusion, totaling $100,000, to its Path to Diversity & Inclusion Scholarships.

Scholarship recipients will receive a voucher to cover registration fees for any MBA Education Program offering, up to a maximum of $2,000.
