SCHOLARSHIPS

 

Scholarships:
AWOGA NY/NJ awards scholarships on an annual basis to current students at the AWMS. Scholarships are awarded to deserving  students based on  leadership potential, merit, financial need, academic achievement and/or other criteria. Scholarship requirements are thoughtfully crafted by AWOGA NY/NJ members  to ensure that scholarship recipients reflect the diversity of the student body.  Awards are made in June-July of each year.


Guidelines for creating a scholarship fund:
As a scholarship donor, you choose the name of the scholarship as well as the criteria. You may also wish to remain anonymous. The AWOGA NY/NJ Scholarship Committee members are available to assist you.  For example scholarships may be established to honor a loved one. Your criteria may reflect your area of interest, geographical/regional origin in Sierra Leone, student's leadership potential, merit, financial need, academic achievement, and/or other criteria. AWOGA NY/NJ must agree to any special conditions established by the donor. Please contact us if you are interested in setting up a scholarship fund at contact@awoganynj.org.
