How being a WEAA Scholar has made a difference in my undergraduate experience:

Being a WEAA Scholar has given me the support and freedom to make the most out of my college experience. It allowed me the financial freedom to buy the textbooks I need or go out with my friends; it allowed me to meet and connect with older mentors excelling in their own fields through the WEAA dinners and brunch; it allowed me to get to know other WEAA scholars who may have similar interests and come from a similar background. I’m very thankful for everything that WEAA has done for me.

“I would like to thank you for your support to make WEAA scholarships possible for students like me.  WEAA has been an amazing support system on campus for me the past one-and-a-half years in allowing me to take full advantage of Northwestern has to offer me.  . . . I truly appreciate your support.”  Unsun, WCAS ‘22
