Padriac Routa Memorial Scholarship

Padriac Routa had a strong commitment to innovation and artistic expression, supporting young adults who were interested in creative careers.

These students often show great promise and drive but may lack the financial resources and social support needed to flourish in college and in the professional world. Padriac would have wanted to leave behind a legacy of support for these students to make higher education more accessible and feasible.

This scholarship aims to support students who are interested in arts and entrepreneurship as they prepare to make the jump from high school to college.

Any high school senior in Ohio who is planning to pursue a career in the arts or entrepreneurship may apply for this scholarship.

To apply, tell us about yourself and how you hope to make a difference in the world through creativity or entrepreneurship. You may also upload examples of your work in addition to your essay response.
