From the OC Register:
At Valley High, Aguilar was able to secure her place in higher education. Aguilar
applied and was accepted into the Earl Woods Scholarship Program in high school. The
program, offered through the Tiger Woods Learning Center of Anaheim and named for
Tiger Woods’ father, funded half of Aguilar’s tuition, books and other expenses once
she was accepted at UC Irvine. Aguilar, now 21, graduates from UC Irvine in June with
degrees in economics and sociology.
