If you are looking for financial aid for women, or know women who are, then this is the directory for you. Here, in one place, are descriptions of nearly 1,500 scholarships, fellowships, loans, forgivable loans, grants, awards, and internships available specifically for women. This funding is open to women at any level (high school through postdoctoral and professional) for study, research, travel, training, career development, or innovative efforts. Each of these funding opportunities is completely described, including contact (address, telephone numbers, e-mail addresses, and web sites), purpose, eligibility, financial data, duration, special features, limitations, number awarded, and deadline date. Plus, the directory provides a set of indexes that let you search the listings by specific subject, residency, where the money can be spent, program title, sponsoring organization, and even deadline date. There's no other directory like this for women. It has become the standard in the field! That's why School Library Journal called it "the cream of the crop," College Spotlight concluded "nobody does a better job," Small Press labels it "the quintessential acquisition," American Reference Books Annual called it "a must-purchase guide," and Reference Books Bulletin pronounced it "the only current source of information on financial aid specifically for women."
