Town and Gown Junior Auxiliary of Orange County

Celebrating 40 Years of Excellence

About Us

Formed in 1969, Town & Gown Junior Auxiliary of Orange County raises funds for scholarships for USC undergraduate students from Orange County, who have shown both academic and community service excellence. The scholarships are new each year and support them throughout their USC career. Funds for the scholarships are raised through an annual benefit each Spring.

Membership

Membership in Town & Gown Junior Auxiliary of Orange County is open to women who are alumnae or friends of USC. The age of our members range from recent graduates to about 40 years old. Potential members are encouraged to attend a meeting or the Annual Benefit before joining. Members must attend six to eight yearly meetings, pay annual dues of $75.00, attend two scholarship interviews, and contribute to our annual scholarship benefit efforts.

Scholarships

The scholarship amounts awarded each year, which are in addition to the endowed scholarships, are based on the prior year’s fund raising amounts. The Scholarship Selection Committee conducts interviews of potential scholarship recipients using the following selection criteria: Orange County resident, high school or junior college GPA of 3.6 or higher, SAT score of at least 1300, variety of academic, social, community and work experiences, strong desire and goals for the future, and a desire to attend USC.
