The Fourth Annual Girls With Wings™ Scholarship window opens
July 1, 2010!
We will be accepting applications for the 4th Annual GWW Scholarship in the
form of an essay with photo stating why the applicant believes she is a role
model for Girl With Wings, to include her motivation, inspirations and future
plans. There is no minimum or maximum length required in the essays;
quality and completeness are key. There is no need to submit financial
information, but if a factor, can be discussed in the essay. The only
prerequisite is that applicants must not have yet received her private pilot's
license, but must already have soloed. Applicants agreed to possibly have
portions of or their entire essays and pictures posted on the GWW website.
Deadline for submission is Midnight EST, August 31st, 2010. See the
previous year's applications here.
Nearly eighty people applied for last year's GWW Scholarship and some
essays captured this requirement with humor, some with a sad story;
unfortunately some did not address this issue at all. Ultimately, the winning
submission will be judged on her willingness to be a superlative GWW role
model. Last year Kam showed potential to continue her interaction with the
GWW organization, via the website and events, so she can assist GWW in
encouraging more young girls to have an interest in aviation. If you would
like more tips on how to successfully apply for financial aid, please read
general scholarship information.
One scholarship winner will be notified September 1st, 2010 and be sent a
check to be used toward flying lessons at the flight school of her choice. The
winner will be ultimately determined by the Girls With Wings, Inc.,
Scholarship Committee. The 2010 awardee agrees to have her winning essay
posted on the website and to submit at least three pictures taking during
flight training. In addition, the winner agrees to submit a final essay
summarizing how the scholarship helped her, what she learned, and her
intent to continue her work as a role model for Girls With Wings™, and her
education, flight training and otherwise, by June 1st, 2011 or return the
awarded amount. All awardee submissions are to be released for use by Girls
With Wings, Inc., and its partner company, Very Important Pilot, LLC, at our
discretion.
Disclaimer: Applicants agree to not hold Girls With Wings, Inc., accountable
for the outcome of using this monetary award. The selection of a flight
school for training rests solely with the awardee and the conduct and safety
of the flight training is in no way the responsibility of Girls With Wings, Inc.
By submitting an application, the applicant agrees not to hold Girls With
Wings, Inc., liable for any harm or injury, personal or otherwise, that may
result from the award, if she is so selected.
