"SHE-CAN scholars get involved. Our academic and residential programs have been enriched by our four scholars -- each have become very active by exploring what Gettysburg has to offer and becoming leaders in their own way.”

How to Join the Coalition 

​Coalition schools and SHE-CAN join together by signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) agreeing that SHE-CAN will present an outstanding scholar who is as a strong fit with the school, and the school agrees to accept her with a tuition, room & board scholarship, so long as they too see her as a good fit and meeting their admission requirements. SHE-CAN further agrees to fund all non-scholarship costs: SAT prep and testing, visa/immigration paperwork, flights, dorm supplies, health insurance, computer, phone, books, a place to stay on holidays, etc. With this funding, Coalition schools can enroll low-income/high potential women for the cost of tuition, room and board.

​SHE-CAN would welcome the opportunity to have a call and/or visit your campus to discuss this opportunity. For a call or meeting, please contact SHE-CAN’s Community Builder Dine DeMarlie at ddemarlie@shecan.global. Fill out the form below for more information:
