Giving Banner

Your support provides the most precious gift anyone can receive - the Gift of Opportunity. Many students need financial assistance to realize their dream of becoming a nurse. Our graduates are tomorrow’s nurses, leaders, research scientists and nursing faculty. Ranked nationally among the top 10 percent of graduate nursing colleges, we are preparing nurses at all levels to care for your friends, families and neighbors

There are a variety of 100% tax-deductible options available to donors, depending on your individual needs and wishes. Student Scholarships, student travel, and simulated learning are all current funding priorities.

Current Funding Priorities

In light of COVID-19 and related adaptations, the College is in immediate need of gifts into the Dean’s Fund for Excellence to support:
  • Access to additional web-based resources for students
    • In order to meet the needs of students in lieu of clinical placement, advanced virtual reality and simulation resources are essential.  This access will be critically important to keep our students on track for graduation.
  • Response to individual student emergency needs
    • To date, our College has provided more than $70,000 to students to meet immediate needs such as increased wi-fi access, basic needs in light of lost wages, and child care.  Funds to replenish our emergency fund will be essential in the coming weeks
Through a gift to the “Dean’s Fund for Excellence you can help our students manage the current COVIC-19 related crisis.  We thank you for thinking of us in this challenging time.
