The economists are: Dr. Annamaria Lusardi, Dartmouth College; Dr. Lewis Mandell, University of Washington; Dr. Sarapage McCorkle, Junior Achievement of Mississippi Valley, Inc.; and Dr. William Walstad, University of Nebraska-Lincoln. The education organizations are: Jump$tart Coalition for Personal Financial Literacy, Junior Achievement USA, The National Council on Economic Education, and the National Endowment for Financial Education.

Apart from the recognition students and teachers can earn from the U.S. Treasury, Charles Schwab Foundation offers college scholarships to students with the highest scores.
