The Women in Transition Scholarship is an annual scholarship awarded to women who are pursuing a college education after a significant interruption in their formal education, such as a gap in education due to family responsibilities, financial difficulties, health issues, or other personal circumstances.
The scholarship provides financial assistance of up to $16,000 per year to cover tuition, fees, books, and other educational expenses. Scholarship recipients also receive mentoring and support from the Women in Transition Scholarship program to help them achieve their academic and career goals.
The Women in Transition Scholarship not only provides financial support to women who have faced significant obstacles in their education but also helps to promote gender equity and diversity in higher education. By investing in the education and professional development of women, the scholarship is helping to ensure that women have equal access to educational and career opportunities, and are able to achieve their full potential.
