Open the doors to a Penn State education with a gift to World Campus student scholarships and funds. Scholarship support from alumni and friends like you helps cover tuition and other costs associated with a degree, keeping students focused on completing their programs and not on financial concerns. Whether large or small, your gift will show Penn State World Campus students you support their success.
If it hadn’t been for Penn State World Campus, I wouldn’t have been able to use education as a stepping-stone to shift careers. My wife and I decided to make a modest monthly recurring gift to support the Charles E. and Carol E. Snyder World Campus Alumni Society Open Doors Scholarship, which supports World Campus students, giving them the resources they need to be successful at Penn State. The biggest selling point for me is that my gift is combined with money that has been matched by the University, increasing the impact of my gift.
