JBU Scholarship Fund

FAQ

Q. Why the Fund?
A. Gifts to this Fund go directly to pay a student employee's wages or to provide for a need-based scholarship. Your gift reaches a student now.

Q. Why is tuition going up?
A. Providing facilities, technology, support services, and faculty for a quality education is expensive. We're not lavish (ask the guys in J. Alvin!).

Q. Why is the need for this Fund urgent?
A. Each year there are countless students that without this fund, could not attend JBU.

Q. Does my gift go to students?
A. Yes! Fund dollars pay student's paychecks and provide for need-based scholarships. If the student works, he or she gets paid. It's not a "gift" directly to the student.

Q. What can I do?
A. Your gift, of any size, is joyfully welcomed.

Q. What if I can't afford to give?
A. We covet your prayers. Also consider whether you can afford $1. Alumni gifts are the single most successful "challenge" to others to give. So, you see, we truly mean it when we say any gift is welcome.
