Purdue Women’s Network Scholarship Endowment

Women’s influence is on the rise across the country, and Purdue women are leading the way. We’re making a difference for generations to come!

Harnessing the potential of every Purdue alumna and friend, the Purdue Women’s Network will endow scholarships for undergraduate women students to foster their success through their time at Purdue and beyond.

When fully funded, the scholarship endowment will provide a renewable scholarship for a student in each of the 10 colleges on Purdue’s West Lafayette campus. The scholarships aim to support students who come from middle-income families. These students do not qualify for the 21st Century Scholars program and are less likely to have the means for a college education without incurring debt.

With these scholarships, the Purdue Women’s Network is influencing the lives of young women—those who may not choose to attend Purdue without the financial help.

See how scholarships make a huge difference in the lives of Purdue students!

Upon reaching $100,000, the endowment will provide one scholarship annually, rotating each year to a different college. Once the endowment is fully funded, a recipient will be named within each college annually.
