Pope Scholarship Fund

Established in 1972, the Pope Scholarship has awarded more than $170,000 to over 80 deserving students attending colleges and universities in North and South Carolina.


This scholarship honors the memory of Claude E. Pope, an industry pioneer, and supports students pursuing degrees in mortgage banking, finance, or related fields.
Funded entirely by member donations and fundraising activities, the Pope Scholarship continues to open doors for future leaders in our profession.

Dee McCandlish Scholarship Fund

Created in 2008, the Dee McCandlish Scholarship was announced at MBAC’s 52nd Annual Convention in Hilton Head, SC, upon the retirement of Dee McCandlish, MBAC’s long-serving Executive Director.


This fund recognizes her 20 years of dedicated service and supports educational advancement in her honor.

Through the services of Cassidy Whitley, Director of Government Relations at Alex Miller Government Affairs, LLC, and Andrew Clawson, Government Affairs Advisor at MaynardNexsen we maintain active engagement with policymakers to ensure your voice is heard in Raleigh and Columbia.
