When you give, you invest in the legacy of Quinnipiac University, an institution that is committed to preparing its students to be lifelong learners and enlightened global citizens. Below are some of the ways you can make an impact.
Endowed chairs and endowed scholarships represent a powerful and lasting opportunity to give. Endowments are a direct reflection of Quinnipiac’s constant commitment to academic excellence, growth and sustainability for the future. These gifts create opportunities for students who may not be able to finance their entire education, and also reflect the commitment of Quinnipiac to academic excellence for today and for the future.
Endowments Why Give?
It’s not just what we give, it is how we give that makes the difference. We don’t just give for a moment—we give for a lifetime. The future of Quinnipiac University, and its important legacy, are only achievable in partnership with the entire Quinnipiac community—alumni, parents, faculty and friends. Each of us plays an important role.
Your generosity is critical to sustaining the Quinnipiac tradition and legacy for decades to come.
We Depend on You
Because …
-
The costs to run and maintain a major university are significant. So, while it may seem like student tuition should be sufficient, the fact is that we need private support in order to bolster and secure the Quinnipiac legacy for the future.
-
While applications for admission are at an all-time high, many prospective students will not have the resources to fund their education at a private and prominent school like Quinnipiac. This is where student scholarships become critical, ensuring that the university can accommodate a diverse, engaged, high-potential student population.
-
Your gifts allow Quinnipiac University to respond quickly to need, and each year thousands of donors invest in the university in numerous, varied ways that help the school grow, thrive and plan for the future.

The Impact of Scholarships
Anthony Boguslawski, MHS ’18
Anthony Boguslawski, MHS ’18, a physician assistant and Iraq War veteran, shares the impact that the Physician Assistant Faculty Student Endowed Scholarship had on his academic career. He is especially grateful to the alumni donors who made his Quinnipiac journey an extraordinary one.
Julian Papasian '18
When Julian Papasian '18 was 6 years old, his father passed away, leaving his mother to raise him and his two brothers by herself. For his mom, the prospect of sending Julian to college as a single parent seemed impossible. Receiving the Frederick J. Mancheski Presidential Endowed Scholarship Fund for Engineering made the "impossible" possible.
“Higher education was like a pipe dream, especially at a high-level institution like Quinnipiac University. Because of scholarships, it isn't a pipe dream; it's a reality.”
Julian, who is majoring in computer science, is one of the many students at Quinnipiac who is benefitting from the generosity of donors. A Quinnipiac education has the power to transform lives, and it goes far beyond a traditional classroom.
Students like Julian discover their passions, develop into leaders and become engaged global citizens through our study-abroad programs, student-faculty research, internships, athletics and performing arts.
