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.
To learn more, please contact the Department of Development at 330-972-7238.

While teaching there, she earned her master's degree at The University of Texas and her doctorate from the University of Houston.
Dr. Alderman is very active in the volunteer community when it comes to educating children. She has always held a strong belief that teachers make a difference, and she continues to put that belief into practice.
The M. Kay Alderman Endowed Scholarship in Education will be awarded annually to two deserving College of Education students who maintain a GPA of 3.0 and also have a financial need for assistance. It is expected that the recipients have a strong work ethic and a commitment to making a difference for all students.
