Scholarships for Women Students

Scholarships are available for women planning to attend a University of California campus next year. Despite busy lives during the holiday season, the scholarships are well worth taking the time.

Women attending any of the area community colleges — Cabrillo, Hartnell or Monterey Peninsula — are encouraged to apply for the Peggy Jack Baskin Foundation scholarship program.

The scholarship program, launched in 2008, provides students with a two-year, $20,000 grant to support their transfer education at a UC campus. To date, the Baskin Foundation has provided more than $600,000 in grants supporting women in education in Monterey and Santa Cruz counties, as well as the San Francisco Bay Area.

The next application round for the scholarship will begin in early 2012. To apply visit www.baskinfoundation.org.
