Women's Leadership Program/Women’s
Resources Award
The Women’s Leadership Program is designed to help women become leaders in their chosen professions. It is a retention program, designed to help female students complete their academic goals and empower other women. In return for committing volunteer hours to the Center for Student Diversity, participants receive leadership training, assist in planning larger events for the campus community, and receive experience that can enhance their ability to be competitive in the job market after graduation.
The program is open to all undergraduate female and transbodied women students. The program also provides financial assistance in conjunction with the Women’s Resources Award. The Associate Director of Women’s Resources in the Center for Student Diversity manages both the program and the Women’s Resources Award.
The Women's Resources Award accepts applications each May for the following school year. Students who already receive scholarships from the Center for Student Diversity, such as the Charlotte Newcombe Scholarship for Mature Women and Men or the Community Enrichment & Enhancement Partnership Award (CEEP), are not eligible for this scholarship.
Applications for the 2013-2014 school year are now being accepted through Monday May 27th. Please download and complete this APPLICATION and email it to mlilly@towson.edu.
