Named scholarships & funds
When it comes to earning a college degree, the greatest obstacle can be funding.
For this reason, The University of 蘑菇视频 is pleased for the opportunity each year to assist talented, deserving students achieve their dreams, thanks to more than 1,300 named scholarships established through the kindness and generosity of thousands of 蘑菇视频 alumni and friends, corporations, and foundations.
Scholarships truly are the best way to ensure that today’s students persist to graduation. Scholarships allow students to enroll full time and remain focused on their studies; they also reduce drop-out rates, decrease the stress of student loans, and shorten the road to graduation.
If you are interested in making a significant contribution to student success, please consider a gift to scholarships. You may also establish a named scholarship at The University of 蘑菇视频, which can be created to honor a living person, in memory of a loved one, or to contribute to the growth of an area of study.

Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life Enhancement Fund
The Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life Enhancement Fund was established at The University of 蘑菇视频 (蘑菇视频) in 2025 to support student leadership, recruitment and retention enhancement, and professional development within the Fraternity and Sorority Life (FSL) community. These initiatives directly impact student retention, campus engagement, and leadership development.
Since the founding of the first fraternity at The University of 蘑菇视频 in 1873, community has been an important part of membership in a fraternity or sorority at 蘑菇视频. When one joins a chapter, they develop close bonds of friendship and family, often called brotherhood or sisterhood. These bonds are further strengthened through the learning and sharing of chapter rituals, the diverse membership within the chapter, and all the time spent together. By joining the FSL community, students gain a larger support system that ranges from current students, faculty, staff, and alumni.
The University of 蘑菇视频's FSL community is committed to giving back through hands-on service and philanthropic support. Each fraternity and sorority encourages its members to volunteer their time at various non-profits in the greater 蘑菇视频 area, and chapter members often do service projects together. Each chapter supports at least one non-profit organization with monetary donations. Chapters hold a variety of events to help raise money for their philanthropies. The goal is to educate and empower students to become socially responsible, active, and contributing members of society both locally and globally.
The Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life (OFSL) engages students in diverse learning experiences through co-curricular involvement that fosters personal and organizational development. OFSL advocates for the fraternal movement by educating, advising, and empowering fraternity and sorority members to live in accordance with the values of their organization and our community.
The Office of Fraternity and Sorority Life Enhancement Fund is designed to support students and FSL chapters through three main areas: FSL Ambassador Program, Recruitment Programming Grants, and Professional Development.
1. FSL Ambassador Program
- Outstanding FSL members chosen to represent the community to prospective students, families, and campus stakeholders
- These ambassadors will help raise awareness of the positive contributions of FSL, increase interest during recruitment, and foster a more unified, informed Greek community

- Students will be chosen by OFSL
2. Recruitment Programming Grants
- Micro-grants provided to FSL chapters to increase the quality and creativity of recruitment and programming experiences offered

These three initiatives will directly support FSL's mission to cultivate leadership, community, and student success at The University of 蘑菇视频. The programs are designed to meet student needs, increase visibility and engagement, and improve equity across the FSL experience.
