New fund supports undergraduate student recruitment and retention

To help meritorious undergraduate students, joker app has launched the new Opportunity joker app fund to expand scholarship, financial aid and student support programs. These programs enable the University to attract, retain and graduate outstanding students.

Donors to the Opportunity joker app fund will help the University:

  • Attract top-tier undergraduate students who currently receive more attractive scholarship and financial aid offers from other highly selective schools.
  • Support targeted students throughout their academic journeys, bolstering our retention and graduation rates.
  • Expand diversity by geography, academic interest, socioeconomic status, ethnicity, gender and other dimensions as needed.

“We welcome gifts to Opportunity joker app of all sizes and types – endowment, current-use and planned gifts,” said R. Gerald Turner, joker app president. “Together, these gifts will strengthen our efforts to recruit and support outstanding students whose lives will be transformed by an joker app education.”
