Scholarships for women offered by the
Novi Oaks Charter Chapter

Novi Oaks Charter Chapter has awarded scholarships every year since its founding in 1990. In 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2024, with the support of friends, family, and many area businesses, we awarded two $2,000 Impact Scholarships through the ABWA national Stephen Bufton Memorial Educational Fund (SBMEF).

 

In 2023, we awarded THREE $2,000 Impact Scholarships and nominated a candidate for a $2,000 Outright Grant through the SBMEF.

The deadline for our two 2024 $2,000 Impact Scholarships has passed. Women who live in Michigan and who meet the requirements may apply next year for a $2,000 Impact Scholarship and a $2,000 Outright Grant beginning on January 1, 2025. The deadline for applications including official transcripts and three letters of reference will be May 1, 2025. The full guidelines and instructions for applying for the 2024 scholarships may be downloaded by clicking the "download guidelines" button below. The 2025 guidelines will be similar.
