The Southwest Ohio Chapter offers local level scholarships under the “Sharon D. Banks Memorial Undergraduate Scholarship”!  These scholarships are for undergraduate female students that are majoring in a transportation related field. Two (2) $3,500 scholarships will be awarded by the Southwest Ohio Chapter to the most qualified applicants, who submit an accurate and complete application. The highest scoring local level winner will also, be forwarded on for consideration of the $5,000 WTS National Level Scholarship. 

Please see the information below and the scholarship application for additional details.

Note that only (1) copy of an application is necessary to be filed for each scholarship, as the Sharon D. Banks Scholarship application serves the purposes of both the local and national review process.

*Before funds are distributed, the recipients must agree to periodically respond to online scholar surveys.  The feedback received provides insight to WTS, with regards to how the recipient is progressing in their transportation development goals.  In turn, WTS is then able to implement more effective scholarship services for future applicants/recipients.
