ACU's Annual Fund

Gifts to ACU's Annual Fund are an investment in today's quality service to students. Tuition pays only a portion of the costs to operate the university. ACU constantly balances the costs of excellence and the need for accessibility and affordability. Without a strong program of annual giving, we would be forced to pass on more of the costs to students and their families - and the burden could easily become too heavy to bear.

Annual costs of technology, academic support services, scholarships, international learning opportunities, utilities, and employee healthcare benefits continue to increase each year. ACU operates efficiently and invests wisely, and we are able to accomplish more with our educational dollars than most universities.  The following opportunities are available for your support on an annual basis:

  • Annual Fund (unrestricted gifts allow ACU's Board of Trustees to use gifts where needed most and gives them the ability to respond to needs as they arise)
  • Hope for the Future Scholarships (help fund academic, leadership and financial need scholarships for students)
  • Annual Fund: College of Arts and Sciences (helps underwrite the budgeted needs of the college)
  • Annual Fund: College of Biblical Studies (helps underwrite the budgeted needs of the college)
  • Annual Fund: College of Business Administration (helps underwrite the budgeted needs of the college)
  • Annual Fund: College of Education and Human Services (helps underwrite the budgeted needs of the college)
  • Annual Fund: Library and Technology (helps underwrite the budgeted needs of the academic library and of technology improvements campus-wide)
  • Science-Math Research Fund (provides grant funds for faculty and student research opportunities) 

The Annual Fund is the way gifts large and small mingle for a common purpose and a common vision - educating students for Christian service and leadership throughout the world. To make your gift today, visit the Give to ACU page or give online.
