The Network of Executive Women is accepting applications for their 2025 scholarship program.
The annual scholarship program provides monetary support to women who would not ordinarily be able to afford educational programs. The objective of the NEW scholarship awards is to offer scholarships to women in need of financial assistance for educational undergraduate degrees, retraining or certification purposes.
To be considered, applicants must be at an undergraduate level, but not transitioning from high school to college; be enrolled at an accredited school in New Haven or Fairfield counties; demonstrate financial need; and be enrolled, continuing or returning to school to further their educational goals or training to enhance their job skills. Members of the NEW and their families are not eligible for this scholarship.
This scholarship is not open to high school graduates or students who have continuously schooled since high school. The program is designed for women who have had their education interrupted or delayed, never had the opportunity to pursue high education, or otherwise need additional credentialing to advance in their career.
The deadline for submitting applications is Friday, Feb. 21 at 5 p.m. No application submitted after that deadline will be considered by the committee.
