BATH
If you’re a woman who’s been out of college but wants to go back, you may be eligible for tuition aid.
Dennis Unger, director of University College at Bath- Brunswick, and Charlotte Price, scholarship selection committee chairperson of the Bath-Brunswick Branch of the American Association of University Women, announced the third year of an AAUW Scholarship Program.
The scholarship will be given to a qualified student for the fall 2013 semester. This scholarship is intended for a non-traditional female student who has been out of high school for at least one year and who wishes to enroll or has already enrolled in college. AAUW pays tuition and fees for one introductory-level college course.
To be eligible, a student should be highly motivated with financial need, be a high school graduate or GED recipient and have at least one year between high school graduation and college.
Tammy L. Richards Meserve, 2012 scholarship recipient, said, “I am extremely grateful for this opportunity and I look forward to taking this next step to accomplishing my educational goals. Having the support of the AAUW by becoming a recipient of this award is a motivation like no other.”
