Honors College Funds:
Honors College Fund
We are always thinking of new ways to support our students in their many endeavors. By supporting our Honors College Fund, our area of greatest need, you are providing help for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
Honors College Scholarship Fund
It is our goal to provide the best in honors education to Boilermakers. To ensure they can fully capture the benefits of our interdisciplinary coursework, we want their thoughts to be on their studies, not their finances. By giving to the Purdue Honors College Scholarship Fund, you help make the dream of an honors education possible for those of limited financial means.
Honors College Study Away Fund
The Honors College is dedicated to providing high impact learning experiences to our students in and outside of the classroom. These opportunities allow students to enrich their intellectual development and intercultural learning. Donations to this fund provide financial support to students that may not otherwise be able to afford to study away or study abroad. Your generosity supports expenses related to these programs.
Honors College Health and Well-Being Initiatives Fund
The Honors College is committed to fostering the growth and holistic development of our students. Your gift to this account supports wellness-related programming that enhances students’ coping skills, builds community and belongingness, educates faculty/staff (e.g., QPR suicide prevention), and provides opportunities for stress-relief.
By combining the small size and feel of a close-knit community of scholars with the curriculum, faculty and research capabilities of a top-ranked public research university, we provide Purdue’s most motivated students with a one-of-a-kind experience. In the university’s only academic residential college, they will find a seamless blend of living and learning, where time outside the classroom holds as much opportunity for personal growth as the hours within.
