Honoring the vision and commitment of Westwood students
The purpose of the Westwood College PATH to Success Scholarship program is to reward enrolled students who are taking control of their future through dedicated career planning and action. By telling us what your career plan is and what steps you are taking while in school to get a job in your field after graduation, and also why you feel you deserve a scholarship, you could win a scholarship. The program awards up to $80,000 in total annually and has an application deadline in May of each year.
