Allan D. Heath Fifth Year Student Athlete Scholarship

The Allan D. Heath Fifth Year Student Athlete Scholarship is designed for student-athletes at Eastern Illinois University who are juniors or above, currently receiving athletic aid but have no athletic eligibility remaining. The scholarship supports fifth-year students who have competed at EIU for the past two years and are in good academic standing. Priority is given to student-athletes in Women's Basketball, Women's Volleyball, and Men's Football. The recipient must not have previously received a Fifth-Year Athletic Grant and must not have been medically disqualified during or before their junior year. The scholarship helps student-athletes complete their academic degrees after their competitive eligibility has been exhausted, providing critical financial support during their final year of studies. Awards can be distributed in fall, spring, or summer terms.
