ABOUT OUR SCHOLARSHIP

The AIWF Vermont scholarship is offered through The Vermont Student Assistance Corp., created in 1965 as a public nonprofit agency to help Vermonters who want to go to college or have other training after high school. The VSAC provides loans, scholarships, career and education planning, and general information about getting an education.

The Scholarships Booklet contains details about the AIWF Scholarship as well as application forms for the next academic year. The VSAC Scholarships Booklet also may be obtained from schools and local libraries.

This year’s scholarship recipient is Kelli Van Horn, who will be attending New England Culinary Institute, in Essex Junction, where she hopes to learn skills to own her own bakery.

Last year's recipient, Stephanie Swett, was also accepted at the NECI. In her thank you she writes, "...it has been an honor to become the first family member to attend postsecondary schooling. My family has been continually supportive thorughout the first year of my schooling. Every week when I call them, they are always excited to hear about all that I have learned.... I paid for my first year of school through scholarships, loans, and personal savings."
