These programs offer leadership opportunities, community service, mentorship, and international experiences that help students develop professional skills and insights.
IN AN INSTANT, AN UNEXPECTED EMERGENCY CAN DISRUPT A STUDENT'S PATH THROUGH COLLEGE
The Student Emergency Fund helped 11 students during the 2023-24 academic year who were at risk of dropping out due to an urgent, short-term financial crisis like a car accident or repairs, fires, family emergency, housing crisis, etc.
IN 2023-24, THE NEW DEGREE COMPLETION FUND (DCF) HELPED 36 SENIORS STAY ON TRACK AND GRADUATE!
In the first year, over 4X the number of seniors applied for the SVSU Degree Completion Fund than could be awarded a scholarship. Generous donors made a meaningful difference. Thank you!
Students who interrupt their education are only ½ as likely to complete a degree
Over 1 million Michiganders have some college education, but no degree. Most earn less $ than those with degrees and are more likely to default on student loans. Earning that degree matters and donor-funded scholarships pave the way!
Javon Sutton is on the Right Path
Financial support from scholarships made it possible for Javon to make the most of the opportunities SVSU offers. Thanks to the generosity of donors who support SVSU, Javon is preparing for his future rather than worrying about the cost of tuition.
“The community has supported me and the opportunities I’ve had. I want to prove that I’m a good investment.”
Sam Johnson made the most of his time here at SVSU. Scholarship support gave him the opportunity to be involved in student organizations, travel internationally, and intern which gave him real world experience and strengthened his leadership skills.
