The selection committee will accept applications until Friday, Feb. 25, 2022, at 5 p.m.

The George Floyd Memorial Scholarship is a one-time award, up to $1,000, for current students who demonstrate leadership through multicultural student organizations and diversity-based initiatives at Ohio University.  

Current students can access the application here.

The George Floyd Memorial Scholarship was established at the request of Ohio University alumni by Ohio University and The Ohio University Foundation in response to a call from the president of North Central University, Scott Hagan, for universities to create a scholarship in honor of George Floyd and the racial justice movement his death symbolizes.
