“I am honored to be selected as a recipient of the 2016 Ridge Scholarship. Because I attend a school that does not hand out scholarship money, this opportunity will be a big help for me and my family.”
 
Matthew Kase will continue his junior year at Notre Dame this fall, where he is studying accounting and entrepreneurship.
 
The 2nd time Ridge Scholar spent time in Ireland this summer with Notre Dame’s Inside Track Program. In college, he is active in Unleashed, a social impact investing group; club lacrosse, serving as treasurer; inter-hall football, serving a captain; and inter-hall basketball. He also participated in Dream Team, a tutoring group.
 
In his essay, Kase wrote that attending an accounting panel discussion at school helped solidify his interest in accounting as a profession.
 
“My financial accounting professor introduced us to professionals in fields including Forensic Accounting, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Mergers and Acquisitions and Private Equity,” he wrote. “It was at this moment that I realized accounting would provide me with the skills that I need to do whatever drives me.”
 
Kase is the son of Matthew Kase, who works for Boyer’s Food Markets in Orwigsburg, Pennsylvania.
