Named scholarships & funds

When it comes to earning a college degree, the greatest obstacle can be funding.

For this reason, The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ is pleased for the opportunity each year to assist talented, deserving students achieve their dreams, thanks to more than 1,300 named scholarships established through the kindness and generosity of thousands of UA alumni and friends, corporations, and foundations.

Scholarships truly are the best way to ensure that today’s students persist to graduation. Scholarships allow students to enroll full time and remain focused on their studies; they also reduce drop-out rates, decrease the stress of student loans, and shorten the road to graduation.

If you are interested in making a significant contribution to student success, please consider a gift to scholarships. You may also establish a named scholarship at The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ, which can be created to honor a living person, in memory of a loved one, or to contribute to the growth of an area of study.

Ernst & Young Endowed Accounting Leadership Scholarship

Ernst & Young LLP created The Ernst & Young Endowed Accounting Leadership Scholarship to benefit students enrolled in the George W. Daverio School of Accountancy at The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ College of Business Administration. The purpose of the scholarship is to assist deserving students pursuing a degree in accounting.

Ernst & Young scholars should:

  • Be enrolled in the George W. Daverio School of Accountancy at The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ 
  • Demonstrate financial need or hardship
  • Maintain a 3.0 overall GPA and a 3.25 GPA in accounting classes
  • Demonstrate involvement in extra-curricular activities, including sports, clubs, charitable organizations, or outside employment
  • Exhibit leadership abilities

Some of the partners of Ernst & Young LLP financed their own way through college via a combination of working and receipt of academic and athletic scholarships. As they understand the difficulties associated with balancing school, work, athletic, and community commitments, they wish to give preference to students who are financing their own education.
