Providing annual scholarships for students
Endowed Scholarships are created to provide for current student scholarships and preserve the scholarship for generations to come. 90% of JBU students receive financial aid and scholarships.
Endowments for faculty and chairs allow for a permanent source of funding for the faculty/chair to use to support their teaching. View endowed chairs here.
Gifts made to this fund will support costs associated with retaining high-caliber faculty. Donors who make contributions to support faculty positions often do so because of the ripple effect that person can have through the nature of their work, both in educating students and advancing research in their field.
Endowed scholarships are scholarships created by individuals, families, foundations or groups of donors (such as alumni classes). Scholarship funds are invested in JBU’s endowment and a spending percentage, which is reviewed and set annually by the JBU Board of Trustees, creates the annual scholarship(s) for students with financial need or who meet certain criteria.
A minimum of $10,000 is required to create an endowed scholarship. In addition to cash gifts, there are a variety of creative ways to fund a scholarship (maybe a link to ways of giving). JBU works closely with donors so that the terms of the endowed scholarship accomplish the donor’s intent
