Branch and State Local Scholarships

The 2011-12 AAUW Local Scholarships Clearinghouse participating state/branch applications are now available online. Please visit: https://www.act.org/aauw/branch/.
This program is a centralized, standardized, online undergraduate scholarship application posting and processing initiative that supports AAUW's local scholarship programs across the U.S. Participating branches and states determine their scholarship amounts and their eligibility criteria, providing a simple, dedicated web portal for women students seeking AAUW educational funding in their local communities and the ability to submit an application online. Applications will be reviewed by AAUW states and branches to determine selected scholarship recipients.
How to Apply

• The AAUW undergraduate scholarship web page provides a menu listing all participating branches/states and the specific award criteria specified by that branch/state.

• Each scholarship applicant will only fill out one standard online application form that includes eligibility criteria. Each applicant can apply for the specific scholarship(s) for which they wish to be a candidate based on the eligibility criteria for each AAUW branch or state program.

• The site also includes information on available branch and state scholarship programs to which applicants may apply directly via state and branch contacts.

If you would like to apply, questions about applications must be directed to the Iowa City office. Please do not contact the AAUW office in Washington, D.C., or local branches for application information. Please call 319/337-1716, e-mail aauw@act.org, or write to the customer service center at
