University Women's Club Scholarships

The University Women's Club is an organization comprised of the wives of faculty and staff, and female faculty and staff. Each spring, the University Women's Club awards $1,000 scholarships to deserving students, in honor of the wives of past presidents of the University of Florida, as well as wives of distinguished campus leaders. Each of these ladies has served the University during her husband's career at the University of Florida, and their service is being recognized by the University Women's Club through the Scholarship Awards.

Students only need to submit one application to be considered for all of the awards. The deadline for 2010 has yet to be determined.
