Contributing at the leadership level of $2500 or more to UVA SCPS significantly enhances the educational experience for our contemporary learners. Your generous support helps provide crucial scholarship opportunities, expand academic programs and recruit and retain highly credentialed faculty and instructors.
- Our SCPS general gifts fund is a great way to allow the Dean to allocate support across the school to our greatest need.
- You can support the program that benefited you through any one of the funds listed here.
- Our SCPS Dean’s Scholarship fund specifically allows the School to grant scholarships to deserving students each year.
