Pre-Health Scholarships

UD's Pre-Health Resource Center (PHRC) annually awards scholarships to defray the cost of attending the University of Dayton.  The funds are derived from three endowed scholarships: Eleanora S. Everhard Scholarship, Dr. Steven E. and June H. Szabo Scholarship, and Carl I. Michaelis Scholarship.

Thanks to the generosity of our donors, these scholarships support deserving pre-health professional students with tuition and/or room and board during their junior and senior years.  Students can apply in the spring semester of their sophomore and junior years for scholarships that apply to the next academic year.

Scholarship and Eligibility Details

This private scholarship was established by Eleanora S. Everhard in memory of her parents, Aaron and Ann Vennette Everhard and is administered by The Dayton Foundation. The original fund was established in 1933. This scholarship is limited to one academic year only, and is not renewable. Preference for the Everhard Scholarships is given to females who are in a premedical curriculum.


This scholarship was established through a gift from the estate of Dr. Carl I. Michaelis in 2001. Dr. Michaelis was a Professor of Chemistry whose teaching career began in 1954 at UD and spanned 36 years. Among numerous awards, Michaelis was recognized as Professor of the Year and was runner-up for the Alumni Outstanding Faculty Award in 1963. In 1987, he was nominated for Distinguished Service Professor and was appointed professor emeritus in 1988. In addition to teaching, Dr. Michaelis advised premedical and predental students and served as the faculty advisor for the student affiliate of the American Chemical Society for 33 years.


This scholarship was established through a gift from the estates of Dr. Stephen E. and June H. Szabo in 1999. Dr. Szabo graduated from the University of Dayton in 1935 majoring in Pre-Dentistry. Professionally, Dr. Szabo was a well-respected oral surgeon in the Dayton area. During his practice, which spanned over 50 years, he fought for and paved the way for all oral surgeons in and around the Dayton area to have privileges to operate in all hospitals. As a result of his efforts, he was on the staff of every hospital in Dayton.


UD's Pre-Health Resource Center (PHRC) annually awards funds from the Szabo Grant to support student engagement in summer experiences.  Experiences may include research, service, or other meaningful activity that strengthen a student’s future application to health professional school, including the development of professional competencies.
