Alumni Scholarship Fund
Giving the Christendom experience to your family.
Christendom’s Alumni Scholarship Fund was created in 1998, in conjunction with the College’s 20th Anniversary celebrations. Now, 14 years later, over 100 scholarships have been awarded to legacy students, that is, students who have at least one parent who is an alum of the College. During the 2012-13 academic year, 34 legacy students are receiving the Alumni Scholarship.
Currently, the Alumni Scholarship Fund has a balance of approximately $400,000 from which legacy children receive a scholarship of $500 a semester. But if the number of legacy children who wish to attend Christendom continues to grow as expected, the fund must also grow, and for that to happen, alumni and friends must remember to contribute on an annual basis.
According to projections, if the legacy student numbers continue to grow, and the alumni continue to donate $400-$500 a year toward the fund, it is quite possible that the annual award could go from the current $1000 per year to possibly $3000 per year, thus making a Christendom education more affordable for the alumni and their children.
The amount of the Scholarship award is uniform across the board. Anyone who has matriculated at the College for one or more semesters is considered an alum of the College. Donations to the fund are tax-deductible and can be made by anyone at any time throughout the year.
