Woman's Educational Society
Supporting Student Scholars at ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø
The Woman's Educational Society of ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø (WES) contributes funds toward tuition for approximately 20 ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø students, regardless of sex or gender, who have been selected as WES Scholars.
WES inspires students for a lifetime of courageous exploration.
The Next Generation of Student Leaders
WES Scholars are chosen for their achievements, academic success, personal promise, and financial need.
In Fall 2024, we also decided that, in light of rising costs of a ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø education, for Scholars entering in Fall 2025 - in honor of the 37 women who established WES - we would increase our scholarship award to up to 37% of ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø’s tuition, for those whose tuition is not fully covered by ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø's own need-based aid. For those whose tuition is fully covered by ºÚ°µ±¬ÁÏÍø's need-based aid, the scholarship is a $5,000 annual award.
The WES Scholarship Endowment of approximately $9 million supports approximately $250,000 in scholarships each year. WES also has limited funds available to support special projects for WES Scholars that contribute to their academic or career goals, such as study abroad.
