During the 2021-2022 academic year, approximately 950 students received an endowed scholarship award. The total awarded was more than $4 million.
In early April, endowed award donors were invited to an on-campus brunch to connect with their student recipients. Donors who couldn’t attend the on-campus event met with their students online.
For information on endowed scholarships, call 309-794-7228 or email Judy Scarpinato.
