At Worthy, we like to think of ourselves as a selling partner for individuals looking to sell their jewelry. But that partnership is something we feel extends beyond the transaction and into the lives of the people we help by providing them with a safe and easy way to make the most of their jewelry as a financial asset. And an extension of that partnership is the Worthy Women’s Scholarship, which we are so proud to once again be able to offer.
The scholarship, which just finished it’s eighth year, is intended for women who have decided to enroll in school to pursue their passions and open up more doors for themselves and others. Over the years, we have helped eighteen worthy women make their dreams of returning to school a reality and continue to support women as they pursue their academic careers and onward. To apply, please review the requirements and writing instructions below.
Our 2024-2025 scholarship application period will open in late August 2024. The application period will end in April 2025 and the winners will be announced in June 2025. Please check our scholarship page in August 2024 to complete your application. You can see our 2024 scholarship winners here.
The writers of the top three selected essays will be awarded as follows:
For your essay, applicants need to choose from the provided essay topics and address it in 300-500 words. We are looking for answers that are honest, thoughtful, well-written, and focused.
The essay topics will be published once the scholarship application period opens.
