University Women's Club Scholarship

The University Women’s Club Scholarship helps to financially assist academically meritorious undergraduate and graduate women students at The University of Kansas.

In the past, multiple recipients have received scholarships ranging from $1,500 to $2,500. The number of recipients and dollar amounts vary from year to year. One-half of each scholarship will be credited to the recipient’s account per semester.

All KU women students who have successfully completed 12 credit hours of undergraduate course work at KU with a GPA of 3.50 or greater, or nine credit hours of graduate course work at KU with a GPA of 3.60 or greater are eligible. The University Registrar and Financial Aid and Scholarship Office (FAS) must verify academic eligibility. No member of the University Women’s Club Scholarship Committee or her immediate family is eligible to apply.

Selection will be based on the contents of this application and an interview for finalists.

Application deadline is February 9, 2024.

The University Women’s Club Scholarship Committee will interview up to 10 finalists.
