The WSA Scholarship Fund
The HBS Women’s Student Association (WSA) has announced plans to establish a new scholarship fund and has revived its popular first-year exam review sessions, an idea first suggested by the newly formed Alumnae Advisory Board.

The WSA scholarship is only the second sponsored by an HBS student club. Fundraising will begin this fall with the goal of awarding up to $20,000 annually on a need basis to an outstanding woman entering her second year. At its first meeting last year, the WSA board, composed of fifteen alumnae ranging from the Class of 1968 to the Class of 2007, expressed surprise that the once-popular review sessions had been discontinued. After securing faculty approval, the WSA last December restarted the sessions, which are designed and led by women students and open to all first-year MBAs.

To learn more about the WSA scholarship, contact Donella Rapier (MBA ’92) at drapier@pih.org, or Melissa Hayes (MBA ’07) at mhayes@mba2007.hbs.edu.
