AWARD RECIPIENT REQUIREMENTS
AAUW scholarship recipients will be required to attend the last AAUW meeting of the year in May 2025 to meet the members of the local group and tell us about their academic and career goals. If no meeting is held, we will share your written remarks with the group by email.  We also request that scholarship recipients staff the AAUW table at the Kodiak Island Scholarship Fair in February to promote the opportunity to prospective applicants. Other volunteer tasks, such as assisting with the AAUW Bazaar, will be offered as well.
