Yardi Scholars Program Supports First-Gen Students at UTA
First-generation students at The University of Texas at Arlington will have the opportunity to receive additional scholarship support thanks to a generous gift from Yardi Systems.
Yardi Systems, a property management software leader for real estate clients worldwide, has made a $320,000 gift to establish the Yardi Scholars program, which will award scholarships to students with financial need who intend to major in business, with preference given to first-generation students. Scholars will receive $10,000 per year for up to four consecutive years of study.
“Supporting education is a core pillar of Yardi’s corporate philanthropy,” said Jay Shobe, senior vice president of Yardi Systems. “We believe in the life-changing impact of a college degree, especially for first-generation scholars, and we are thrilled to partner with UTA to help these students achieve their goals.”
