Norwich students have
received nearly $500,000 in awards through the Norwich Women's Club
Scholarship fund (formerly the Marion Cross Scholarship Fund) since
1964. The fund was originally named in honor of Marion Cross, a
teacher and principal in Norwich for over 40 years.
��−
Scholarships from the Norwich Women's Club are open to residents of Norwich who
are pursuing post secondary education at an accredited institution. The
priority for NWC scholarships is for students just graduating from high school,
but returning students and adults going back to school are encouraged to apply.
Those interested in applying for NWC scholarships need to apply through
VSAC and should obtain the VSAC (Vermont Student Assistance Corporation)
scholarship application booklet. The booklets are available in the Hanover High
School guidance office, the Norwich Public Library, on line, by calling VSAC
at 1-888-253-4819 or clicking here.
Applicants will complete the confidential application.,
which includes a financial statement as well as short essays about financial
need, high school/applicable experience, and future goals.
The
completed application must be mailed to VSAC by the March deadline.
Applications postmarked after the closing date will not be processed.
Incomplete applications will not be processed by VSAC and cannot be considered
by the Norwich Women's Club Scholarship Committee.
