The Clarkson Fund

The Power of E2E…Today

E2E is our multi-year campaign for greatness. The Clarkson Fund is what makes this happen right here...right now.  

This year, more than 3,000 enterprising, high-ability Clarkson students are creating their own futures— and our futures—through more than 50 rigorous academic programs. The brightest, most promising students often can’t afford to pay full tuition. In fact, many are first-generation college students from families with limited economic resources. Opening doors and opening minds means providing financial aid... and The Clarkson Fund allows Clarkson the ability to offer generous award packages to deserving students.

Tuition alone doesn’t cover the costs of providing a Clarkson education. Your contribution to The Clarkson Fund helps us bridge the gap...each year. Your commitment powers the highest-priority, most pressing needs and opportunities, every one of which benefits students, both today and tomorrow.

You know what an exceptional education Clarkson delivers. You understand the real-world benefits, the real-world focus we provide. E2E is our practical formula for forward progress at Clarkson, and The Clarkson Fund is how you can help today.

Our Strategy for Your Dollars

Your contribution to The Clarkson Fund delivers immediate results on campus, affecting students’ lives. Here are some examples of what your generous donation helps support:

• Financial aid. We list this first because it’s the most important. Nine of ten Clarkson students need—and get— financial aid. Our students have skill, brains, and passion. Scholarships and financial aid unleash their potential.

• Technology. The days of this being an “extra” are long gone. Amazing innovations require the absolute best in technology.

• Academics. This is the core of the Clarkson experience. Classes, tutors, advisors...the myriad elements that enable every student to discover, innovate, and learn.

• Sustainability. From a campus sustainability competition that funds great student ideas to leading-edge research, we’re at the forefront of intelligent resource use.

• Athletics. Challenge students on the ice, the court, or the field, and they’ll challenge themselves in the classroom, the laboratory, and the interview room. Let’s Go, Tech!

Multiply the Benefits

We need your support. Our students need your support. Contribute to The Clarkson Fund, and you’re making a Clarkson education a reality for today’s students.

Beyond that immediate help, your support plays an exponential role in Clarkson’s future. Your contribution—of any size—adds to our alumni participation rate. Grant-making institutions look at that rate when deciding whether to give to Clarkson. Before these institutions have confidence in us, they want to see that our own alumni believe in us. Your contribution now leads to their contributions in the future. That’s a pretty good payoff for you…for Clarkson…for our students.

Help keep Clarkson University exceptional. Share in our evolution to excellence. Give to The Clarkson Fund and E2E.
