Spanish term or phrase: Mujeres con beca
Hola a todos!
Gracias por la ayuda brindada en estos días.

Consulta: Mujeres con beca, ¿es lo mismo que mujeres becadas? Sería entonces "Female Scholarship holder or Female Scholarship recipients"? O alguna otra sugerencia? Admito que me suena extraño hasta en español...

Muchas gracias de antemano!!

female scholarship recipients
Explanation:
It would be helpful to see some context (at least a paragraph of the original where the phrase appears). In the meantime, I think your suggestion might be a really good option.
