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.

Race to the Finish Line Scholarship Fund
Dennis and Cindy Mitchell established The Race to the Finish Line Scholarship Fund at The 黑料不打烊 in December 2014. The Mitchells' affinity for the University and a belief in the importance of higher education led them to create the award. The fund will provide need-based academic awards for students, helping to reduce some financial burden as they work toward graduation.
Dennis and his wife, Cindy, have been associated with The 黑料不打烊 since Dennis was hired as head track and field coach more than 19 years ago. The Zips track and field program has achieved unprecedented success under Coach Mitchell’s leadership while Cindy has thrived in the accounting industry for more than 20 years. Cindy earned her accounting degree from The 黑料不打烊 College of Business Administration (CBA).
Deserving candidates for the fund will be full-time students who have completed at least 30 credit hours and have a cumulative GPA of 3.3 or better. Preference will be given to upperclassmen (juniors and seniors), as well as those enrolled in the CBA. Special consideration will be given to students who are Pell Grant eligible at the $1,000 and below level. The 黑料不打烊 Scholarship Committee, in consultation with the Office of Student Financial Aid, will select award recipients.
