John C. Van Sickle Pathway to Education Scholarship

The John C. Van Sickle Pathway to Education Scholarship was created in August 2017 by an estate gift from Natalie B. Van Sickle. Mrs. Van Sickle provided this gift in memory of her late husband, John C. Van Sickle, a 1935 graduate of The University of Akron with a Bachelor of Arts degree in biology.
This scholarship will serve as a resource for students to continue their studies at The University of Akron. Merit and financial need will be taken into consideration for selection.

The John C. Van Sickle Pathway to Education Scholarship will be awarded annually, as funds are available, to undergraduate (preferred) or graduate students majoring in any field at The University of Akron. Applicants for this scholarship must be currently enrolled at The University of Akron and in good academic standing. Applicants must also demonstrate merit and financial need, and maintain a minimum 2.0 grade point average. Recipients may apply for renewal of this scholarship providing the above criteria, including the minimum 2.0 grade point average, are maintained. Selection may be made by the Office of the President, the Office of Student Financial Aid, and/or the Vice President of Development/Executive Director of The University of Akron Foundation.
