Donors make it possible to advance the School's mission by providing scholarship high-caliber students and attracting nationally recognized faculty.
One of the best ways you can help the School of Education, Social Work, and Psychological Sciences is by donating to particular projects that need immediate funding. Every gift makes a difference, because it touches many diverse efforts to enhance academic excellence. We depend on your financial help to attract and retain the best and brightest students and faculty.
Scholarships, both need- and merit-based, allow many of our students to achieve their dreams. Funds are also available to assist students with emergencies, conference travel and other school-related expenses. Your contributions ensure that we are able to attract and retain the brightest minds working to make a difference in their communities.
We’re dedicated to attracting and retaining nationally recognized faculty. Potential students are attracted to strong programs that have experienced and engaged faculty. Contributions to an endowed chair or professorship allow us to draw the attention of the best academic minds in the country. Not only does your gift help strengthen existing programs, it also creates new opportunities for students. Adding more outstanding faculty members is essential to our growth.
Your financial contribution — regardless of the amount — strengthens the educational experience, providing vital support to our students, faculty and programs.
These unrestricted gifts play a critical role for students such as augmenting scholarships, supporting student academic programs and enabling student development and research projects.
Throughout the years, our alumni and friends have made major gifts to create scholarships, support programs and provide the Dean with resources to take advantage of extraordinary opportunities. Major gifts ensure a strong endowment and can also help build and restore facilities and sustain our classroom activities. Major gift donors can choose to direct their support toward an area where their personal interest matches the needs and priorities of the School of Education, Social Work, and Psychological Sciences. These gifts can be made in the form of pledges that can be paid over a multi-year period. They also can lead to unique recognition opportunities that can honor or memorialize a person who is important to you.
Planned gifts may take the form of charitable bequests, charitable gift annuities, charitable remainder trusts, real estate, or gifts through a life insurance policy.
