The Fairbanks Branch of the American Association of University Women (AAUW) is offering two $1,000 scholarships to local women with plans to re-enter or continue their post-secondary education or to pursue educational projects. The awards will be based primarily on merit.

Each applicant should write a letter stating her educational background, why she wants to continue her education, her educational goals, her needs, and how she plans to use her education in the future.

If the applicant wishes to pursue an educational project instead of taking formal classes, she should describe the project and tell how she plans to use the award money to complete it.

All applications must be received by March 31.

Send completed applications to:
