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.

Reymann, Charles and Salome Endowed Scholarship

The Charles and Salome Reymann Endowed Scholarship was established at The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ in 1976 by The Charles and Salome Reymann Foundation and was revised in 2008 and 2023. The scholarship provides annual tuition assistance to undergraduate students majoring in special education pursuing the mild/moderate or moderate/intensive intervention specialist track. This licensure focuses on providing special educational services to individuals with developmental disabilities.

Charles and Salome Reymann had a family of 16 children. Charles and his partners established the Atlantic Foundry in ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ in 1905. Charles eventually acquired control of the entire company, and the Reymann family owned and operated the business until its closing in 1989. Charles and Salome also established the ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ Mattress Company, which later became the San Hygene Furniture Company.

Because Charles and Salome had two grandchildren with special education needs, support for individuals with such needs became an important focus for the couple. In 1967 the descendants of Charles and Salome established the Reymann Foundation to honor and continue the legacy of good works that Charles and Salome had performed in the community.

ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ eligible for The Charles and Salome Reymann Endowed Scholarship must be special education majors in the LeBron James Family Foundation School of Education, pursuing the mild/moderate or moderate/intensive intervention specialist track. Additionally, candidates must:

  • Have a GPA of 2.75 or higher;
  • Have financial need, as verified by the University's Office of Student Financial Aid;
  • Be in good academic standing; and
  • Have a record of exceptional service with ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ and/or community organizations.

Selection of recipients will be made each spring by the School of Education Scholarship Committee without regard to race, color, religion, sex, or national origin. The Charles and Salome Reymann Foundation will receive the names of the recipients and their application essays within 30 days, enabling them to appropriate scholarship amounts for each student.
