Soroptimist of Wallowa County is offering a scholarship to recognize and encourage the continued educational pursuits of an outstanding young woman of Wallowa County committed to achieving a college, vocational or technical education and who demonstrates potential to be successful in her future career path.

This scholarship is open to a Wallowa County woman seeking a two or four-year degree at an accredited institution, and who has completed, or will complete, at least one year of college by September 1, 2019. Applicants must plan to enroll as a student in Fall of 2019.
