Illinois State University Alumni Association Scholarship
In 2009 the Alumni Association launched an initiative to create the Illinois State University Alumni Association Scholarship. This scholarship addresses the accessibility of undergraduate education to students who exhibit outstanding academic achievement and leadership and who demonstrate a financial need. Additional consideration is given to students whose immediate family members have attended or graduated from Illinois State University. The Illinois State University Alumni Association is a volunteer, non-profit organization that serves almost 180,000 alumni, the University, and its students. The members of the association strengthen the University's traditions, future growth, and networks of influence.
