While the scholarship application process was open to students in any major or field of study, applicants pursuing a certificate or degree in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) were especially encouraged to apply. Scholarship America received over 1100 applications for SkyWater Foundation\u2019s scholarships over the course of 12 days.<\/p>\n<p>\nApplicant eligibility included: high school graduates or current college undergraduates who plan to enroll in full-time undergraduate study at an accredited two-or-four-year college, university or vocational-technical school for the entire 2023-2024 academic year with a minimum grade point average of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale (or its equivalent). Competitive applicants were considered by academic record, demonstrated leadership, extracurricular activities and a statement of educational and career goals and objectives.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe SkyWater Foundation Scholarship Program is helping students like Victoria A. from Georgia pursue their goals in higher education. As valedictorian of her high school class, a soon-to-be freshman at Duke University and a first-generation college student, she said, \u201cThis scholarship is enabling me to attend a private, out-of-state university which would otherwise be implausible for me.\u201d Hers is a testament of how \u201cthese scholarships truly aid students who matriculate into institutions in hopes of financial and career-wise success for their families.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nWith $10,000 awarded to each of the 10 recipients, the students are attending a range of universities from Georgia Institute of Technology to MIT and Stanford, among others. The areas of study include STEM-focused majors such as computer science and electrical engineering as well as areas like business, commerce, finance and others.<\/p>\n<p>\nAccording to Amanda Daniel, SkyWater\u2019s chief people officer, \u201cThe scholarships awarded by the Foundation will help students realize their academic dreams by making their education more accessible, leading to promising career opportunities. It also contributes to the on-going effort of industry to work with institutions in support of domestic workforce development. In particular, STEM education is central to the revitalization of the U.S. semiconductor industry, and we are committed to working with local and national communities to develop the critical talent needed for the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nIn a world where nearly 70% of new jobs require a bachelor\u2019s degree, but fewer than 50% of workers have one (according to nonprofit Opportunity@Work), these scholarships are helping bridge that gap and equip students with the education they need for promising career paths. In a <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/cts.businesswire.com\/ct\/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fcew.georgetown.edu%2Fcew-reports%2Fthe-college-payoff%2F%2529&amp;esheet=53431955&amp;newsitemid=20230627294273&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=2021+report&amp;index=2&amp;md5=80fddceb220b1f7c67fa9d9c10985130\">2021 report<\/a> from the Georgetown University Center on Education and the Workforce, adults with a bachelor\u2019s degree earn an average of $2.8 million during their careers \u2013 $1.2 million more than the median for workers with a high school diploma.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;The board of the Oxbow Foundation is thrilled to be a major contributor to the SkyWater Foundation Scholarship Program and to witness the transformative impact it has on students like Victoria,\u201d said Oxbow Foundation director, Julia Unterseher. \u201cBy providing financial support, we are enabling talented individuals to pursue their educational goals and unlock opportunities for themselves and their families.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nAdded director Elise Unterseher, &#8220;The Oxbow Foundation is proud to contribute to the advancement of STEM education and the development of future leaders in the semiconductor industry. The SkyWater Foundation Scholarship Program makes education more accessible and aligns with our commitment to fostering education. These scholarships are empowering students to pursue higher education and unlock greater earning potential, setting them up for success in their future careers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b>About SkyWater Foundation\u2019s Annual Scholarship Program<br \/>\n<br \/><\/b>The Oxbow Foundation and SkyWater Technology, Inc. in partnership have established the SkyWater Foundation Fund, Inc. to offer a college scholarship program.
