Scholarship Applications due March 15
College Woman’s Club of Westfield
The College Woman’s Club of Westfield annually awards up to $10,000 in individual scholarships to young women from Westfield on the basis of academics, leadership and financial need. The 2023 scholarship application is currently available at cwclubwestfield.org and through the Westfield High School guidance department.
This year will mark the 98th year that the College Woman’s Club has awarded grants and scholarships at its annual meeting in May. Any young woman from Westfield who is pursuing higher education at an accredited 4-year institution is eligible. Westfield students attending private, parochial or county schools are also invited to apply. To be considered, applications and supporting materials must be received in the WHS Guidance Department by Wednesday, March 15.
In the words of one recent recipient: “Thank you so very much, on behalf of myself and my mother, as you are helping us both. I am truly honored to be recognized by women I admire and strive to be like – strong, smart, caring and working to make a difference in this community and beyond.”
Founded in 1917, the College Woman’s Club is a multigenerational community organization dedicated to lifelong learning and supporting higher education for women. Membership is open to all area women with a college degree and a desire to help future generations attain that goal.
