Women Giving to Women Scholarship

Here are some general eligibility criteria that are commonly considered for women advocacy scholarships:

• Gender: Women advocacy scholarships typically require applicants to identify as women or females. These scholarships aim to support and empower women in pursuing their education and careers.
• Advocacy and activism: Applicants may be required to demonstrate a commitment to women’s rights, gender equality, or social justice through their involvement in advocacy and activism. This can include participation in women’s organizations, community service, volunteering, or leadership roles in initiatives that promote women’s empowerment.
• Academic achievement: Many women advocacy scholarships consider academic performance, such as GPA, class rank, or standardized test scores. Some scholarships may have minimum GPA requirements or specific academic benchmarks.
