What is the WBO Scholarship? How do I apply?
WBO sponsors a named scholarship that is awarded annually, usually in conjunction with Montgomery College. It is intended for a woman returning to college to re-enter the work force or to change her career path. (The applications we receive are typically from divorced or widowed women who now need to build their careers or women that took time off to be at home with their children and are now ready to begin working again.) The process is simple. An applicant fills out a form provided by Montgomery College which is submitted to the WBO Board of Directors. Value of and criteria for scholarship are determined by the Board annually (usually at a spring Board meeting). Traditionally, the value of scholarship is $1,000 and criteria are as stated above.
