As part of the Woman’s Club of Concord’s mission to empower women, we
award the Woman’s Club of Concord Annual $1000 Scholarship to a Concord
Area high school senior girls who shows promise.

Through GFWC dues WCC contributes to General Federation of Women’s Clubs
– GFWC - New Hampshire Scholarship, and
– Mrs. Dexter Otis Arnold Scholarship


The Woman's Club of Concord Annual $1,000 Scholarship is awarded to a
college-bound, highly motivated and directed senior girl who is selected
through an application process.

Interested applicants may
download the application form from this site. Information can also be
obtained from the guidance department at the three Concord Area public
high schools: Concord, Bow and Merrimack Valley.

April 1st is
the deadline for WCC scholarship applications to be submitted to the
Woman's Club of Concord. The Woman's Club of Concord Scholarship
Committee then reviews the applications and evaluates each applicant.


The finalists are selected to be interviewed. Interviews are scheduled
for after mid-April at Chamberlin House, 44 Pleasant Street, Concord NH.

Of particular interest to the Scholarship Committee are the areas of:

Academic Achievement
Community Service/Involvement
Financial Need
Interest in Women's Issues
Leadership


The Woman’s Club of Concord Annual $1000 Scholarship final recipients
are chosen based on the interview results and will be selected by May
1st.
A Scholarship Certificate is presented at the Woman’s Club of
Concord May 21st Annual Meeting where they meet members of the club. The
Woman's Club of Concord will notify the recipient's high school and
send a press release to the Concord Monitor.

After completing
her fall semester, the recipient briefs the Woman’s Club of Concord
Scholarship Committee on her accomplishments for the term and includes a
copy of her transcript. Once this report has been received and
evaluated, the Woman's Club of Concord sends $1,000 directly to the
recipient's school, to be applied to her second-semester tuition.

Please send inquiries for more information about applying for the
Woman's Club of Concord Annual $1000 Scholarship to our Co-Chairs Elaine Bello & Carole Palmer: Scholarship@WomansClubofConcord.org
