Giving to AHS

The College of Applied Health Sciences accepts gifts in a variety of forms so that prospective donors may choose the types of gifts that they perceive to be the most efficient, personally satisfying, and financially advantageous for both themselves and the College. The impact of private giving is significant. Less than one-third of our budget is provided by the State, with the remainder supported by private funding. With your support, the College can provide scholarships to deserving students and make improvements to the facilities they use. Your gift, when combined with those of other alumni and friends, is having a significant impact on how we educate our next generation of students.

Giving Opportunities

Several methods are available for you to support Applied Health Sciences and make a lasting impact on our students. Those methods include annual giving, endowments, and several specific opportunities to leave your legacy with the College (including scholarships, facilities, programs, and endowed professorships).
