Washington State Opportunity Scholarship (WSOS) envisions a state where all Washingtonians have access to our state’s best jobs and our companies have the diverse, local talent needed to innovate for a better world.

Mission Statement

The mission of Washington State Opportunity Scholarship (WSOS) is to transform Washington state by building pathways to high-demand jobs that strengthen our communities and economy.  We envision a Washington where all residents have access to our state’s best jobs, and our companies have the diverse, local talent they need to innovate for the world.

Description

Washington has one of the fastest growing state economies with more STEM and health care jobs than we can fill. WSOS aims to connect our state’s leading industries with top Washington talent by reducing barriers to education and training and facilitating entry into high-demand careers for Washington students.

Working collaboratively with state and industry partners, we launch low- and middle-income students into careers, maximizing the return on investment for the state and ensuring our state’s robust economy can continue to thrive. We achieve this by coupling flexible scholarship funding with student support services that include peer and industry mentorship.
