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

Deibler, Geraldine Endowed Scholarship
The Geraldine Deibler Endowed Scholarship was created in 1997 by Kent Jones to honor the memory of his sister, a 1952 graduate of The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ who exhibited a lifelong passion for art. Geraldine graduated with a degree in medical technology and was a member of Phi Mu sorority while attending the University. She was listed in Who's Who in American Colleges and Universities for 1952.
The earnings from this endowed fund will be used to provide scholarship assistance to a deserving student pursing a bachelor of fine arts degree at the Myers School of Art, The ºÚÁϲ»´òìÈ.
