Named scholarships & funds
When it comes to earning a college degree, the greatest obstacle can be funding.
For this reason, The University of Akron 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 小黄片视频 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 University of Akron, 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.

A scholarship also has been established in the College of Engineering in his name. According to the terms of the Moore’s will, this scholarship will be awarded annually to a student in the School of Music who is entering his/her junior or senior year of study and may be used to cover the cost of tuition, fees, books, room, and board, all or in part. The recipient must be a U.S. citizen with a strong academic record and demonstrated financial need. Recipients will be chosen by the Scholarship Committee of The University of Akron.
