Nevada Women's Fund runs one of Nevada's largest privately funded scholarship programs for women, serving Northern and rural Nevada -- every Nevada county except Clark County. It offers a Degree Pathway track (associate's through doctoral study, minimum 3.0 unweighted GPA) and a Workforce Ready track (vocational/certificate programs, high school diploma only, no GPA minimum). Selection weighs financial need, academic performance, and personal background; Degree Pathway applicants submit a FAFSA summary and school transcript, and both tracks require a Nevada ID. Individual award amounts are not published. The Degree Pathway cycle opens October 1 and is due January 5.
DemographicsWomen only; open to residents of Nevada counties other than Clark County (Northern & rural Nevada).
Individual award amounts are not published; the Fund has said it has awarded millions of dollars in scholarships since 1983.
