Because Zonta International believes in gender equality, the Jane M. Klausman Women in Business Scholarship program helps women pursue undergraduate and master's degrees in business management and overcome gender barriers from the classroom to the boardroom. Women of any age, pursuing a business program at an accredited university/college/institute, who demonstrate outstanding potential in the field and are living or studying in a Zonta district/region, are eligible. Online students are also eligible to apply if enrolled at an accredited university/college/institute. Applicants must still be in school at the time the scholarship funds are disbursed and must not graduate before April 2025. The program operates at the Zonta club, district/region, and international levels. Each district/region may submit one applicant for consideration for an international scholarship. The five largest districts may submit a second applicant for a total of two applicants. The application process must start with a Zonta club. All application materials must be received at a Zonta club by the deadline. If you downloaded the application from the Zonta International website, you must contact a Zonta club first for deadline information. If the Zonta club contact information is not printed on the application, please locate the Zonta club nearest you by using the Club Locator, or email your name and contact information to Zonta International Headquarters. One recommendation from a faculty member in the major field of study and one recommendation from an employer, volunteer supervisor, or academic adviser must be submitted. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Zonta International Foundation for more information.
