🎓✨ Celebrating STEM Excellence! ✨🎓
This year, again, the AAUW Grosse Pointe Scholarship Committee proudly awarded six $1,500 scholarships to outstanding young women from Grosse Pointe South High School and from Grosse Pointe North High School, each pursuing ambitious careers in STEM. From biochemistry and engineering to medicine and environmental science, their futures are bright—and inspiring! The awards are granted based on academic performance, the student’s essay, participation in activities, and the successful and timely completion of the scholarship application. A minimum grade point average of 3.0 is required to apply. Winners of the scholarship were required to submit a letter of acceptance from the college or university they plan to attend prior to the release of the funds.
Special thanks to Marion & John Spitzley for launching the Spitzley Family Scholarship, and to our dedicated committee members for their tireless work reviewing applications and uplifting the next generation of STEM leaders.
