The Power of Your Support

Last year, more than 7,000 donors made gifts totaling more than $15.2 million. More than $730,000 was directed toward the areas of greatest need and general scholarship aid. Every donation, no matter the size, makes it all possible.

Last year gifts funded: 

Renovations to both libraries including wireless learning commons for group study and refurbished computer and science labs.

More than $119 million in awards to 1,182 students for financial aid and scholarship support.

Summer co-op participation for 40 additional students.

The Power of Gifts Combined

The gifts of alumni and friends like you are essential to providing a quality education.

Every gift counts. For example:

The power of 430 gifts of $50

$21,500 funds one of more than 50 Chancellor’s Commonwealth Scholarships each year.

The power of 40 gifts of $150

$6,000 funds one summer co-op experience.

The power of four gifts of $500

$2,000 funds student participation in a research project with a faculty mentor.

The power of 308 Chancellor’s Leadership Society gifts ($1,000 or more)

Last year, these gifts funded scholarships for students, research programs and the outfitting of new fully equipped labs.
