Each finalist was interviewed over Zoom the week of May 15, 2023, by the Scholarship Sub-Committee, comprised of three members of the Education Segment Steering Committee.
Erin Timko, Trepp's Director of Academic and Industry Relations said, "Mr. Walsh's application stood out from the first read. When we interviewed Mr. Walsh, he was even more impressive in person given his interest and co-op experiences in commercial real estate (CRE), his work ethic, ability to take initiative and create value, along with his leadership experiences."
The program was created by Trepp's Education segment to support students pursuing degrees and careers in the commercial real estate finance industry. Given the volume of highly qualified candidates, the Steering Committee decided to honor an additional finalist, Mohammed Wara with an honorable mention scholarship award.
"Mr. Wara's parents immigrated from Afghanistan in the 1990s and he is a first-generation student at NYU Schack," said Timko. "Mr. Wara is driven, curious, and excited about a career in CRE to not only better his own livelihood, but to inspire others to follow in his footsteps."
