They're Available Online
Get ready to start writing, because
the 2005 scholarship listings are now available online and in the
September issue of Aviation for Women magazine. Women in Aviation,
International has given out $3.5 million in scholarships since
1996. Last year alone nearly $500,000 was awarded to Women in
Aviation members during the organization's annual international
conference.
Interested applicants may download an application for this
year's scholarships by logging onto the organization's web site.
Scholarship recipients include pilots, mechanics, engineers,
dispatchers, flight attendants, students, teachers, and even
managers involved in aviation. Awards range in value from $500 to
more than $25,000. Any member can apply. Read scholarship
descriptions carefully to make sure all requirements are met and
follow the application's directions carefully.
Deadline for most applications is December 3, 2004.
Scholarship applicants must be
current WAI members. Membership rates are only $39.00 a year
(student memberships are available for $29). Information on how to
join can be found on the WAI web site or by calling (937) 839-4647.
In addition to being eligible for scholarships, an entire member
benefits package will be sent including a subscription to Aviation

Another membership benefit includes the WAI Regional
Conferences, including the next one in Chicago (September 17, 2004)
