New Scholarship Opportunity for Moravian’s non-traditional students

(Bethlehem, Pennyslvania) --Two Emmaus residents have anonymously established a scholarship fund specifically to assist Continuing and Graduate Studies students at Moravian College. The Windmill Foundation Scholarship will assist non-traditional students.

The donors wish to assist non-traditional students who share their sense of active commitment to the community and willingness to encourage others to pursue educational excellence. "We want no restrictions on age, gender, or stage at which the student enters college," the donors emphasized. "New or transfer students are welcome to apply." The scholarship may be used to cover tuition, fees, and textbooks required by the course(s).

Applicants must be high school graduates or possess a GED transcript confirming ability to take on college level instruction and must show financial need based on the analysis of their FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid).

"We are extremely grateful to the donors for this assistance," notes Dr. Linda Heindel, dean of continuing and graduate studies. "The gift came as a surprise – and what a wonderful surprise."

Moravian College is a private, coeducational, selective liberal arts college located in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. Tracing its founding to 1742, it is recognized as America's sixth-oldest college. Visit the Web site at www.moravian.edu.
