Theological Education Scholarships

The generous contributions of Baptist Women in Ministry of North Carolina supporters enable the organization to award four $2000 scholarships annually to female ministerial students enrolled in North Carolina Baptist institutions. Baptist Women in Ministry of North Carolina partners with:

• The Baptist House of Studies at Duke Divinity School
• Campbell University Divinity School
• Gardner-Webb University School of Divinity
• Wake Forest University School of Divinity

These scholarships from BWIMNC provide financial assistance to worthy women pursuing graduate degrees in theological education. Scholarships are awarded to women who exhibit a clear call and commitment to vocational Christian ministry, academic excellence, demonstrated leadership skills and expressed support of inclusiveness in all dimensions of life. Each divinity school nominates women who possess those qualities annually to receive the scholarships.
