<p>Anyone know good colleges offering scholarships for women going into undergrad engineering? Seems like USC offers some scholarships to recruit women.</p>
<p>univ of maryland does. i rec'd a full tuition scholarship (i'm female btw lol)</p>
<p>Don't quote me...</p>
<p>I have heard that Christian Brothers University in Memphis, Tn. is very much focused on having ladies study engineering. </p>
<p>They are focused in that they will make a lady a nice offer to attend their school if the lady wants to study engineering. </p>
<p>I know nothing more, really. But, it is worth looking into (^_^)</p>
<p>Most of the larger universities, especially the public ones, will offer scholarships for women in engineering. There are also great opportunities for this in outside scholarships if you participate in science competitions and the like.</p>
<p>A neighbor got excellent aid from University of Maine, the state flagship.</p>
<p>Women are prime recipients of merit aid at most engineering schools because women are underrepresented in engineering.</p>
<p>Cool. My daughter will be happy to know that(and her financially supporting father).</p>
