Alumnae Association Board Scholarship
Each year the Alumnae Association Board (AAB) selects four students to be the recipients of the most
prestigious scholarships the Stephens College Alumnae Association bestows upon Stephens students.
Three scholarships will be awarded to three rising, residential students – one sophomore, one junior, and one
senior. The fourth student must be a graduating senior who will be awarded a $250 award and the honor of
being the class speaker for her class’ commencement ceremony in May. Award recipients will be announced
during Honors Convocation and invited to have lunch with the AAB during Celebrate Stephens reunion
weekend.
The selection committee is looking for applicants who epitomize the qualities of a Stephens Woman – one who
embodies the Ten Ideals throughout her daily life. Recipients must demonstrate not only academic excellence,
but also show commitment to the Stephens community through passionate engagement, service and leadership.
