Designated Funds / Women's Scholarship Fund
It's Never Too Late to Build the Future You Deserve
The Women's Scholarship Fund puts women over 35 through a degree, into the careers they have wanted for years, and into economic security of their own.
The Challenge
She Is 38.
She's raising two kids on her own, and it's been fifteen years since she sat in a classroom. She knows exactly what degree she needs to finally get the job, and the future, she wants. What she doesn't have is $10,000 for this year alone, let alone the full degree.
What We Do
3 Ways to Make Her Success Possible
A Scholarship to Finish Her Degree
Full tuition support, so the cost of studying isn't what stands between her and the future she's working toward.
Academic & Emotional Support from Faculty
Counseling, mentoring, and academic help. Real support for the moments when returning to study after 15 years gets hard.
Career Guidance
Hands-on support, so the degree actually leads to the job it was meant to.
