Together, We Inspire Student Success

Our students are scrappy. They work hard and demonstrate enduring dedication in their academic pursuits. 

We are committed to putting students first by providing the programs and resources they need to reach their greatest potential, some of whom are the first in their families to attend college.

Scholarships

Scholarships can be the difference between

  • a talented student choosing Kennesaw State over another university
  • a deserving upperclassman completing their degree
  • or an aspiring high school student pursuing higher education at all

Through philanthropic support of endowed scholarships, you reward meritorious students, enabling them to accomplish their educational and professional goals.

Graduate Fellowships

Our graduate students are dedicated and driven. They often pursue their degrees part-time while working, limiting their ability to participate in career-defining research. Assistantships and graduate fellowships offer invaluable experiential learning opportunities.

Your contribution to assistantships and fellowship programs will give graduate students a hands-on role working alongside world-class research faculty and industry mentors to solve issues facing our society.

Programmatic Support

At KSU, we realize that experiences outside the classroom shape the lives of our students. Programs like First Flight; the KSU Journey Honors College; Campus Awareness, Resource, and Empowerment (CARE) Services; Center for Young Adult Addiction and Recovery (CYAAR); and Military and Veteran Services (MVS) transform students' lives every day.

Gifts benefiting these programs are investments in our mission to continue putting the holistic experience of our students first as they navigate the path to earning their degrees.
