Anna Ropp Endowed Scholarship
The Anna Ropp Scholarship Fund was created in 2004 and funded initially with birthday gifts given in celebration of Ann's 100th birthday, and later with memorial gifts given by friends and family. The sons of Ann Ropp completed the endowment through family gifts. Each candidate for this scholarship must be enrolled in good standing at ISU, demonstrate academic achievement, as evidenced by a cumulative GPA of at least 3.0 on a 4.0 scale, and demonstrate financial need. Preference will be given to non-traditional nursing students in their junior or senior year, participating in the RN/BSN or equivalent program, or to a graduate student who demonstrates concern for body, mind, and spiritual aspects of nursing. Assets of this endowment are invested in the Illinois State University Endowment Investment Pool.
