The Third Annual Girls With Wings™ Scholarship window has closed!

We were accepting applications for the 3rd Annual GWW Scholarship in the
form of an essay with photo stating why the applicant believes she is a role
model for Girl With Wings™, to include her motivation, inspirations and
future plans. There was no minimum or maximum length required in the
essays; quality and completeness are key. There was no need to submit
financial information, but if a factor, could be discussed in the essay. The
pilot's license. Applicants agreed to possibly have portions of or their entire
essays and pictures posted on the GWW website. Deadline for submission
was November 1st, 2009. See the results of this year's applications
here.

Nearly eighty people applied for this year's GWW Scholarship and some
essays captured this requirement with humor, some with a sad story;
unfortunately some did not address this issue at all. Ultimately, the winning
submission will be judged on her willingness to be a superlative GWW role
model. Last year
Amy showed potential to continue her interaction with the
GWW organization, via the website and events, so she can assist GWW in
encouraging more young girls to have an interest in aviation. Amy is taking
an active role in organizing the August 22-23rd training event in NY. If you
would like more tips on how to successfully apply for financial aid, please

general scholarship information.

One scholarship winner will be notified December 1st, 2009 and be sent a
check to be used toward flying lessons at the flight school of her choice. The
winner will be ultimately determined by the President of Girls With
Wings™/Very Important Pilots, LLC. The 2009 awardee agrees to have her
winning essay posted on the website and to submit at least three pictures
taking during flight training. In addition, the winner agrees to
submit a final
essay
summarizing how the scholarship helped her, what she learned, and
her intent to continue her work as a role model for Girls With Wings™, and
her education, flight training and otherwise, by July 1st, 2010 or return the
awarded amount. All awardee submissions are to be released for use by Girls
With Wings™ and its parent company, Very Important Pilot, LLC, at our
discretion.
