Mitchell Ly Underrepresented Leaders in Techology Endowed Scholarship

Western Governors University’s (WGU) mission is to change lives by creating pathways to opportunity with high-quality, competency-based, post-secondary degree paths that support racially and ethnically diverse students in higher education. More than 70% of WGU students come from systemically disadvantaged populations; the average student is 34 years old; and we consistently maintain one of the lowest tuition rates in the nation. 

The Mitchell Ly Endowed Scholarship supports: 

1. Underpresented students currently or formerly employed in technology sector.

2. WGU students pursuing degrees in the technology sector, with a proven background or passion for leadership (does not

have to be currently in an IT role).

3. Students pursuing a career change to an IT field.

"I wanted to create a scholarship that removes financial barriers and opens doors for talented individuals from underrepresented communities. Supporting these future leaders means building a more diverse and inclusive future for all of us, where we all have the opportunity and are empowered to use our voices and learned experiences. 

I hope that this scholarship will inspire WGU students to dream bigger, achieve more, and blaze a trail for others to follow." - Mitchell Ly
