Non Traditional Student Scholarships for Moms

Non-Traditional Student Scholarships for Mothers
ANTSHE Scholarships

Since moms are generally older students, they are considered to be non-traditional students, and if this describes you, you should be seeking not only scholarships for moms and scholarships for single moms, but also scholarships for non-traditional students. You can start applying for non-traditional student scholarships at the Association for Non Traditional Students in Higher Education, or the ANTSHE.

The ANTSHE offers two separate scholarship opportunities. These scholarships are the Marius Gabe DeGabriele Scholarship and the Kazimour Scholarship. The first scholarship is for graduate students, and the second is for undergraduate students. Either way, the students who apply for these scholarships must be considered non-traditional students. Both scholarships can be applied for using just one form, and this can be accomplished online.

Although the applications can be done online, you must also submit two recommendation letters, which will have to be mailed in, in sealed envelopes. The person who writes the letter must sign their name across the seal. The application and the personal statement can be submitted online, but you must also mail in your transcripts. Applications can also be mailed in, but the information must be typed, or done with a word processor – handwritten applications are not considered.

Additionally, to be considered for either of these mother scholarships, you must be a member of the ANTSHE. If you are applying for the scholarship for moms for graduate students, you should have a GPA of 3.5, and be accepted to a graduate program as a full time or part time student. If you are applying the undergraduate scholarship, you must be enrolled in either a degree program or certificates program as either a half time or full time student, and have already completed at least 30 credit hours of study. You must additionally have maintained at least a 3.25 GPA. If you are in a two year program, you need to have completed at least 15 credit hours of study. To apply go to ANTSHE scholarships for non traditional students. May 1st is the application deadline and for further questions you can email at scholarshipofficer@antshe.org.
