Through donations collected, the Women's Athletics Fundraisers were able to initiate a Fifth-Year Scholarship Program, which allows female student-athletes an opportunity to finish their degrees during their fifth-year of academics.
Many student-athletes find that most scholarships fall short in funding their education beyond four years, and the WAF assists female student-athletes in completing their education once their athletic eligibility has expired.
The contributions gathered by the Women's Athletics Fundraisers through the Fifth-Year Scholarship Program will help the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics continue to provide each female student-athlete the opportunity to receive a first-class education at The University of Texas-Pan American.
The Women's Athletics Fundraisers and the UTPA Department of Intercollegiate Athletics believe in the same vision that the success that its student-athletes achieve during their collegiate days is only a small part of the impact that they'll make in the future.
By donating to the Fifth-Year Scholarship Program, you will have an opportunity to continue the educational experience for the female student-athletes allowing them to become the leaders of tomorrow.
