The Women’s Leadership Scholarship recognizes and supports exceptional female-identifying students who demonstrate leadership and make a positive impact. We aim to empower and inspire the next generation of female leaders by providing financial assistance to them as they work to achieve their academic goals.

We recognize that, while women are becoming more prominent as leaders throughout the world, there are still many barriers that make it difficult for women to feel empowered and obtain proper support in leadership positions. We’re awarding the scholarship to one female-identifying student who has exhibited leadership qualities in various settings. Leadership takes many forms and can be demonstrated in various ways, whether it’s through leading a student organization, participating in social initiatives, excelling in academic pursuits, or supporting peers in the classroom, this scholarship celebrates the unique leadership journeys of women.

By investing in these talented individuals, the scholarship aims to create a more inclusive leadership landscape that benefits from the perspectives and contributions of women in leadership roles.
