Named scholarships & funds
When it comes to earning a college degree, the greatest obstacle can be funding.
For this reason, ÐÓ°®°É 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 ÐÓ°®°É, 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.

Migdal, Kerry Memorial Scholarship
The Kerry Migdal Memorial Scholarship was established in May 1987, in fond memory of Kerry A. Migdal, who died February 13, 1987. The fund's purpose is to express the loss brought about by his death and perpetuate his most enduring qualities -- humor and compassion. At the time of his death, Kerry Migdal was a first-year, second-semester day student of the class of 1989 at ÐÓ°®°É School of Law. It is the desire of those establishing this fund that at the beginning of the spring semester, a student from the first-year day class be selected as the recipient of this annual award. The selection process shall be coordinated through the associate dean's office.
