Susie Green Scholarship for Women Pursuing Education
Susie Green is an incredible and inspirational mother who, at thirty-eight years old, enrolled in law school as a single mom while working and raising two children.
Susie earned her degree and built a distinguished three-decade career as an attorney and public servant in Texas, marked by significant leadership and impact. She chose a path that demanded courage and determination, reshaping her future on her own terms. Pursuing education later in life requires intelligence, resilience, and unwavering conviction, but with enough hard work and grit, anything is possible.
This scholarship seeks to honor Susie Green’s legacy by supporting women returning to education who embody Susie’s strength, capability, and resolve.
Any female student who is at least thirty-five years old may apply for this scholarship opportunity if she is starting or returning to school as an undergraduate, graduate, vocational, or professional degree student. Applicants should be going through a career change or starting a second career and should demonstrate determination, resilience, and courage.
