Donor Recognition

2026 Donor Scholarship Luncheon

It’s no secret that a college education is costly. We aim to make it as affordable as possible, and one way to achieve this is by providing ample scholarships and special endowed funds for our students. Nearly all students who apply and have need for financial aid -- 99.4% -- receive some kind of assistance through scholarships, grants, loans, work-study, or undergraduate research funds. Endowed and annual scholarships, along with special endowed funds, provide a means to help serve the needs of students and their families.

More than 220 endowed and annual donor scholarship funds complement other forms of financial aid. Scholarship awards help decrease the amount students would otherwise need to borrow. A total of $858,647 was awarded to 448 students in the 2025-2026 academic year, helping to ease their financial burden at Pitt-Bradford. The money from donor scholarships is truly a gift to our students and an investment in their future.
