Scholarship Opportunities

Specifically Designed for Adult Students

Are you an adult student in Central Ohio going back to school? Or 
perhaps you know someone who is an inspiration working to finish
their degree despite obstacles. EWI of Columbus offers two
scholarship programs available to non-traditional students living in
Central Ohio.

1.  The Adult Students in Scholastic Transition (ASIST) scholarship
2.  The Cindy Ansted Scholarship Fund (made possible by a generous
     donation from Battelle.

One application - two chances for funding. 

EWI of Columbus awards scholarships to eligible individuals who are permanent 
residents in either Franklin County, Ohio, or one of the six contiguous counties 
(Licking, Fairfield, Union, Pickaway, Madison and Delaware) that define our 
Chapter boundaries . See the map below if you are unsure if you qualify:



ASIST PROGRAM
From its early beginnings, EWI® has always been committed to promoting community involvement and professional development among its members. In 1974, EWI® participated in a community project to encourage the development of careers in business among high school students. Enthusiastically embraced by chapters throughout the organization, the program quickly grew and developed into what is now known as the Business/Career/Development Program. Today, B/C/DP is a renowned nonprofit organization offering scholastic assistance.

EWI of Columbus participates in the:
Adult Students in Scholastic Transition Program (ASIST)

 The Adult Students in Scholastic Transition Program (ASIST) provides financial support to Central Ohio adult students at transitional points in their lives. Applicants may be single parents, individuals just entering the workforce or displaced workers who live within a chapter's geographical boundaries. To be eligible for the program, candidates must be able to define their career goals and objectives and meet the necessary educational and financial requirements.

 Scholarships are awarded per Internal Revenue Service Guidelines. Verification of enrollment is required before payment will be made by EWI®. Awards are paid directly to a higher education institution.

The Cindy Ansted Scholarship Fund
EWI of Columbus, one of the premier organizations for women in business, is please to announce it has been awarded a $25,000 donation from Battelle to establish the Cindy Ansted Scholarship Fund. This scholarship fund honors EWI representative and retired Battelle employee Cindy Ansted. Receipients will meet the qualifications exhibited by Cindy in her 35-year career at Battelle, including demonstrating her leadership skills, dedication, strong work ethic and a willingness to help others. 

The Cindy Ansted Scholarship Fund serves as a compliment to the existing Adult Student in Scholastic Transition (ASIST) scholarship program provided by EWI annually for which Cindy has worked tirelessly to support. Winners will be determined through the same ASIST scholarship application process and timeline.
