Academic and Extracurricular Excellence Scholarship

Scholarship History:

Nola Agha was a Kinesiology major at Indiana University from 1993 to 1996. She obtained an education under the auspices of a multitude of wonderful professors and rounded off her education through employment in the Division of Recreational Sports and through leadership in the Kinesiology Club. As a California native, she understands the challenges faced by out-of-state students to focus on their studies and experiences while working to pay tuition. It is her love of education, her high respect for the faculty in the Department of Kinesiology, and the absence of scholarships expressly for out-of-state students that led her to create this Scholarship.
