Wooten Earns Wells Fargo Postgraduate Scholarship

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. – Carly Wooten, a senior on the North Carolina fencing team, was announced Saturday afternoon as the recipient of the 2016 Wells Fargo Postgraduate Scholarship, a $10,000 grant presented annually to a UNC senior student-athlete who is attending graduate school. The Wells Fargo announcement was part of the Rams Club’s Endowed Scholarship Lunch, held at the Carolina Club.

Wooten, from Welcome, N.C., is set to enroll at the Wake Forest Master of Arts in Management program this fall.

“Carly really stands out as a very well-rounded and incredibly accomplished young woman and someone to whom we couldn’t be prouder to give the Wells Fargo Postgraduate Scholarship,” said Nicholas Carey, Vice President of Sponsorships at Wells Fargo.
