YUWO scholarships

The Yale University Women’s Organization (YUWO) is offering scholarship awards to women whose formal education has been interrupted or delayed and who wish to resume their studies, or to enhance or change their careers.

Members of the Yale community and their direct family members are eligible for the awards. YUWO members and family are not eligible. Present staff members and wives of staff members will be given first consideration. Applicants are judged upon merit and need.

Applicants should state their Yale affiliation and enclose a self-addressed, stamped, business-sized envelope. Completed applications must be postmarked by March 1.
