Scholarships
“Becoming a student at Bradley was possible for me because of the Frank Campbell Endowed Scholarship. Becoming a leader in my field was possible because of the innovative program opportunities at Bradley. Now I give back to keep this path open for future students like me”
– Taylor Gawthorp-Cruse ’16

Two Ways to Support Student Scholarships
Endow a Named Scholarship:
Through a gift of $50,000 or more, payable over 1 to 5 years, you can endow a named scholarship and feel confident the earnings on your gift will support future Bradley students in perpetuity. You can also consider establishing an endowed scholarship through a bequest, including gifts of property, stock, or life insurance. Once your endowment is fully funded, you will receive annual reports with details regarding the endowment’s earnings, the value of scholarships awarded, and highlights about the students who benefit from your support.
Name an Annual Scholarship:
To make an immediate impact on students, you can commit $10,000 or more to name an annual scholarship by contributing a minimum of $2,500 per year for four consecutive years. For each year your named scholarship is awarded, you will receive an annual scholarship report including information about the impact of your scholarship and the student who received your support.
