Endowed gifts
Endowed gifts remove financial barriers so that students can attend UMass Dartmouth and ensure that top professors remain at UMass Dartmouth to teach the next generation of students.
Gifts can be endowed over a period of up to five years with distributions occurring after the fund is fully endowed. The list below provides some basic frameworks of potential endowment possibilities:
|
University Chair - $2,500,000 Department Head Chair - $1,500,000 Endowed Professorship - $1,000,000 Full Scholarship - $250,000 |
Scholarships
The staff of the Advancement Office are available to discuss your interests and draft scholarship fund terms that will indicate the preferences of the award, funding intentions of the donor, and the institution’s endowment spending policy.
|
Term Scholarships Term scholarship funds provide a great opportunity to have an instant impact on a student’s education. To establish a named Term Scholarship, a donor must commit to two-years at $1,000 per year. Similar to an endowed scholarship fund, a donor may state preferences for scholarship awards. |
