Scholarship Donors

The Virginia Foundation for Independent Colleges’ Scholarship Program allows a corporation, foundation or individual to have one or more students at the VFIC’s 17 member institutions selected as recipients of their scholarship. To establish a new named scholarship or to ask a question about current scholarships, you may contact the VFIC through our Contact page. In 2023, the VFIC awarded 703 scholarships. Scholarships provide students with opportunities to further their education at our member colleges and universities. Our hope is that, in the future, even greater numbers of students will benefit through partnerships with these and other supporters of Virginia’s independent higher education.

THANK YOU!

 

L. Hopson
University of Richmond Graduate

“Without you believing that I could achieve my goal and supporting me all 4-years at this institution, I would not be where I am today. No amount of words can express my gratitude. Thank you again for this life changing opportunity.”

R. Alexander
Washington and Lee University Graduate

“Thanks in part to the UPS scholarship I received through the VFIC, I was able to attend and graduate from my dream school. My four years there helped me discover my love for the study of political philosophy and led me to pursue my Ph.D. in political science. I am now starting my fourth year in the program, teaching my own class of undergraduates and hopefully passing down the gift of a liberal arts education.”
