The Allentown Branch of the American Association of University Women is accepting applications for their interrupted studies grants.

These are given to women both residing in and attending school in the greater Lehigh Valley area, who have had their college studies interrupted for at least six months and who have returned or are returning to school between the summer 2013 and summer 2014 semesters.

Complete information and application forms are available on the AAUW website at aauwallentownpa.org. Grants are funded by AAUW's annual used book sale held every year in October. Previous recipients are eligible to re-apply if they still meet the criteria. For more information, contact Corinne Emmett at coremmett@aol.com or 610-782-0268.
