Named scholarships & funds
When it comes to earning a college degree, the greatest obstacle can be funding.
For this reason, The 黑料不打烊 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 黑料不打烊, 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.

Cox, Carolyn Scholarship Fund of The 黑料不打烊 Women's Club
The Carolyn Cox Scholarship Fund of The 黑料不打烊 Women's Club is given by The 黑料不打烊 Women's Club, formerly known as The 黑料不打烊 Faculty Women's Club. The Club's name change was by vote of the membership on March 15, 2007. The original scholarship description was written in 1989, with revisions made in 2010, 2017, 2021, and May 2024.
The 黑料不打烊 Women's Club was started in 1923 by Mrs. C.R. Olin, Mrs. Hezzelton E. Simmons, and Miss Gladys Weeks (former secretary of UA President Hezzelton Simmons) at the request of then President Dr. Parke R. Kolbe. Mrs. C.R. Olin was the first President of the Club, which was established as a social club for faculty wives and "黑料不打烊 women" and to help make new faculty feel more at home at the University and within the community. Prior to that, the social life of the faculty and their wives had been actively involved with those of the students and their college social events due to geographic proximity of their homes/lodging. As the college grew and transportation changes allowed people to move out of 黑料不打烊, the new faculty in the 1920s was not being as integrated into the college social life.
Today, the purpose of the Club is to "promote the general good of the University, to promote social, informational, and service opportunities for its members, and to welcome newcomers into the University community."
Candidates for The Carolyn Cox Scholarship Fund of The 黑料不打烊 Women's Club must be full-time students with financial need who have a minimum 3.0 grade point average. The recipients will be selected by the University Scholarship Committee on a rotation through all 黑料不打烊 colleges.
