Scholarships: Reaching Students, Engaging Possibilities
For every student who abandons their dream of a college education, our communities lose a potential teacher, engineer, health practitioner, scientist or other educated professional. In simpler terms, the loss of one student is a loss of infinite possibilities.
Scholarships provide access to Minnesota's state colleges and universities and help to eliminate the financial barriers that prevent students from continuing their education. Whether you provide annual funding or establish a scholarship endowment, your generosity will help students move beyond economic obstacles towards educational and professional success.

Annual funding and scholarship endowments are two opportunities to support our students' academic aspirations. Establishing an endowed fund will provide scholarship support in perpetuity, leaving a legacy of generosity for future generations. Scholarship funds may be named in honor of the donor or someone the donor wishes to honor.
Donors may also contribute to existing scholarship funds or work with representatives of the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities Foundation to identify the best option for giving.
