Scholarships are now available for women through the American Association of University Women (AAUW), Redlands Branch. These scholarships are given to women returning to college who reside in Redlands, Banning, Beaumont, Cherry Valley, Yucaipa, or Highland.
Scholarships are awarded in the amounts of $750 for community college and $1,500 for a four-year college or university. Last year, seven deserving women received scholarships from the Redlands AAUW.
In order to qualify for these scholarships, a woman must be either currently enrolled in, or returning to a college or university after a period of absence; she must also meet the residency requirements. The deadline for submitting applications is Feb. 1, 2016. Applications and further information are available on the AAUW Redlands Branch website: aauw-redlands-ca.org/scholarships.
