Charles L. and Kathryn Joley and Family Deans Scholarship in Education

The Charles L. and Kathryn Joley and Family Deans Scholarship in Education supports full-time students at Eastern Illinois University who are pursuing teacher certification. The scholarship is available to sophomores, juniors, and seniors and gives preference to non-traditional students, such as single parents, and those with demonstrated financial need. Priority is given to recipients who show significant dedication and potential in the field of education while facing significant challenges in financing their preparation for teaching. The award is paid in the Fall Semester and varies in amount based on available funds.
