​​​​Local Scholarship at Portland Community College

AAUW of Portland actively participates in fundraising for our scholarship endowment at Portland Community College. Our local scholarship is administered by the PCC Foundation and goes to a returning student in the STEM field, who demonstrably supports the mission of AAUW, and with plans to transfer to a 4-year institution.

All Portland Branch scholarships and grants are given through the PCC Foundation or through AAUW National, according to the policies and guidelines of those organizations. To see if you qualify, please go to PCC Foundation or to AAUW Fellowships and Grants. ​
