What is Distinguished Young Women?

Distinguished Young Women is a unique program that combines the chance to win college scholarships with a program that offers Life Skills training to prepare young women for the world after high school. Each year we make over $1 billion dollars in scholarships available and it costs nothing to enter!

The program takes place in all 50 states and Washington DC with some states having local programs as well. Young women participate in either their junior or senior year of high school, so check the web page of your state or local program to make sure you don’t miss out. Apply now to find out!

Each Distinguished Young Women program evaluates participants in the following categories: Scholastics (25%), Interview (25%), Talent (20%), Fitness (15%), and Self-Expression (15%). Local program winners, in states where locals are available, advance to the state level. All state winners participate in the National Finals which is held in Mobile, Alabama the June after you graduate from high school.

In addition, through our Life Skills program, which includes workshops and online resources, participants can learn skills like:

• interviewing
• public speaking
• self-confidence building
• community involvement
• and so much more!

Our local program serves the young women in Brazoria, Fort Bend and Galveston Counties. The Class of 2024 Showcase will be a demonstration of the hard work each young lady puts in daily to improve herself; and end with the awarding of scholarship funds and three medallions to the representatives who will go on to state early next year.
