Dr. Christa Clark to award the $2,500 "Supporting & Promoting Real Opportunities for Women to Thrive" scholarship to one female non-traditional student.
SACRAMENTO, Calif., July 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Granite Bay plastic surgeon Christa Clark, MD, FACS is pleased to announce that the second annual S.P.R.O.W.T. (Supporting & Promoting Real Opportunities for Women to Thrive) Scholarship is now accepting applications. The scholarship is designed to support and encourage California women who are pursuing a non-traditional path to higher education.
"Many women have goals to further their education, embark on a new career path, or earn their first college degree later in life, but returning to school while balancing responsibilities such as family, a full-time job, etc. can be challenging," states Dr. Clark. "I believe every woman who wants to pursue higher education should have the opportunity. I am pleased to offer S.P.R.O.W.T. for a second year and help another woman in her educational journey."
The S.P.R.O.W.T. Scholarship is open to all female non-traditional students who reside in California and who currently attend or plan to attend a higher education institution within the state. Eligible students are invited to apply on Dr. Clark's website beginning today, July 3, 2018. The scholarship amount of $2,500 will be awarded directly to the student as a cash prize and is to be used toward tuition and fees, supplies and technology, transportation costs and other education-related expenses.
Dr. Clark notes that any woman who is not following a traditional educational path is welcome to apply. Examples include women who are working full time in addition to attending school, have children or other dependents at home, part-time students, and those who do not have a high school diploma.
"Non-traditional students enrolling in higher education are often in the greatest need of financial support, yet fewer scholarship opportunities are accessible to them," states Dr. Clark. "In designating the S.P.R.O.W.T. Scholarship for these students, specifically women, I hope to encourage more women to pursue their dreams."
Details about the S.P.R.O.W.T. Scholarship and the scholarship application form can be found here. Applications are to be submitted online. The deadline for entry is 5PM PDT on August 31, 2018.
"I wish all applicants the very best of luck," states Dr. Clark. "It's a pleasure to help California women achieve their goals and I look forward to awarding the 2018 scholarship."
