Scholarship Information
UA Foundation’s Scholarship for Alumni Success (SAS)
The Scholarship for Alumni Success through University Academy Foundation is funded by John Isenberg and Tom Isenberg. The brothers were fortunate to have the opportunity to attend college and pursue careers in business. They believe strongly in education and this is their way of “paying it forward.” It is their hope that the recipients will be successful and at some point “pay it forward” to others, whether it be their own children or someone else.
The SAS scholarship is intended to reduce the financial burden of earning a bachelor’s degree and accelerate UA Alumni toward their academic and professional goals. If requirements are met, this $2,500 per semester scholarship is renewable for 4 years (or 5 years for 5 year programs). Funds will be disbursed directly to the institution for tuition, housing, and other academic fees.
