Scholarships

Academic Scholarships

Each year the Newman Catholic Student Center awards scholarships to Catholic undergraduate and graduate students attending The University of Iowa who are involved at the Newman Catholic Student Center. We are able to offer a number of scholarships each academic year. Applications are available in the spring for the following academic year. 
The application deadline for the 2022-2023 academic year has passed. Thank you.

Athletic Scholarships

Through the generosity of numerous benefactors, Newman Center established a fund through The University of Iowa Center for Advancement for two annual partial scholarships to be awarded to one male and one female student-athlete involved at the Newman Center. The selection process, with registration and participation at the Newman Center as a focal point, is conducted by the UI Athletic Department.

Abbey Klostermann, Class of 2024, a junior majoring in Biology is a recipient of the 2022 Newman Center Catholic Student-Athlete Scholarship. A graduate of Assumption High in Davenport, Abbey says the Newman Center is nice as it is a great place to put into practice her faith, which was part of the curriculum in high school. She says that balancing academics, athletics, and her faith can be a challenge, but she has an amazing support staff and incorporates her faith life into her athletics, "I give all glory and honor to God when I perform, it is all for Him." Abbey is the daughter of Bryon and Dana Klostermann.

Goeres/Beckman Scholarships

Annually, scholarships of $500-$1000 are given to Beckman Catholic graduates who are active in the Newman Catholic Student Center. The purpose of the scholarship program is to help Beckman graduates continue in, and to grow in, their journey of faith from their home parish. Recipients participate in on-campus Newman Center programs while pursuing their academic degree at the UI. Former Xavier (now Beckman Catholic) High and U of I graduate, Nic Goeres, has provided these scholarship funds annually since 2012, awarding 125 scholarship in 10 years. Scholarship applications for incoming freshmen are available through Beckman High School, returning students should contact Kristie Wert, Director of Development. Applications are due in August.

CATHOLIC STUDIES SCHOLARSHIP

The Catholic Studies Scholarship was established in 1998 by Casey D. Mahon of Iowa City. Ms. Mahon received a B.A. in social work in 1973 and a J.D. in 1976 from the University of Iowa. This annual scholarship is awarded to students who have expressed an interest in the general area of Catholic studies. With the inauguration of the Rossi Faith and Culture speaker series in the spring of 2018, the Catholic Studies Scholar research topic has aligned with one of the national speakers invited to present at Newman during that academic year. This is a great opportunity for us to prepare and explore deeper a relevant current topic and how it intersects with our faith and culture today.

A special thanks to the generosity of many beneficiaries who support these Newman Catholic Student Center Scholarship Funds at The University of Iowa Center for Advancement. These funds make these scholarships possible.
