Applications Process

for 2023-2024 Scholarship Grants

Scholarships grants are awarded annually to qualified greater Cleveland women ages 25 or older in a four-year degree-granting program or graduate program. The Scholarship Committee selects recipients on the basis of maturity, academic record, promise, goals, and financial need. Send inquiries to ccwscholarship@gmail.com if not answered below. CCW is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that funds the scholarships solely through members’ contributions to our Scholarship Foundation.
