Two drop-in information sessions will be offered in the Women's Center:
- Wednesday, February 19th* from 12-1pm OR
- Thursday, March 5th from 4-4:45pm
*The info session on 2/19 also includes an extended presentation focused on crafting personal statements provided by Dr. April Householder. This extended session will be very valuable for crafting the required essays for the scholarship and is highly recommended!
If you cannot attend one of the sessions in person, a live-stream option will be available via Facebook Live. Please contact the Women's Center for more information.
Information sessions are a casual opportunity to ask questions. A brief overview will start the session before the rest of the time is opened up for questions. You may drop in and go as needed after the initial overview.
This year's scholarship deadline is Monday, April 6, 2020.
