Armenian Women’s Educational Club Announces 4 Scholarships

The Armenian Women’s Educational Club recently announced that is accepting applications for four $1,000 scholarships from high school seniors entering a four-year college in the fall of 2014.

Applicants must be seniors at a greater Boston high school; be of Armenian descent; be accepted at a four-year college or university; and be United States citizens, or hold a resident alien card. Winners of the $1,000 scholarships will be selected on the basis of their academic record and financial need.

To request scholarship application forms, call Araxie Manjikian at (781) 937-0515. Applications are due April 30, 2014. Scholarships will be awarded in June.

The Armenian Women’s Educational Club was founded some 75 years ago for the purpose of providing scholarships to college students, first in the Middle East and, for the past 30 years, in the United States. Started by a group of Armenian immigrant women who wanted to support education, the club has awarded over $100,000 in scholarships to young people of Armenian heritage.
