Ryan Scholars
The Ryan Scholars Program was established by the generous donation of Patrick and Shirley Ryan in 2007 to financially support and attract high-achieving, lower-income students with exceptional Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵhip potential to attend Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ without incurring significant loan debt.
Ryan Scholars are a group of gifted, motivated students who bring energy, talent, and intellectual curiosity to the Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ community. Each year, students who demonstrate commitment to service and Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵhip, as well as outstanding academic performance, are selected to become Ryan Scholars prior to attending Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ.
Throughout their four years, in addition to funding, Ryan Scholars have the opportunity to attend select programming and community events.
