ACADEMIC SUPPORT: UNRESTRICTED GIFTS TO THE CITADEL ARE AN ESSENTIAL COMPONENT IN MAINTAINING THE COLLEGE'S ACADEMIC EXCELLENCE AND FISCAL STABILITY. UNRESTRICTED GIFTS HAVE AN IMMEDIATE AND ENDURING IMPACT ON CAMPUS PRIORITIES AND THE MOST URGENT NEEDS, PROVIDING THE FLEXIBILITY TO SUPPORT THE COLLEGE'S MOST CRITICAL OBJECTIVES. UNRESTRICTED GIFTS ENABLE THE CITADEL TO:1. ENHANCE THE CLASSROOM EXPERIENCE AND LIBRARY RESOURCES 2. SUPPORT CADET RESEARCH AND TRAVEL INITIATIVES 3. PROVIDE SCHOLARSHIPS AND FINANCIAL AID RESOURCES 4. ENGAGE AND RETAIN THE MOST TALENTED FACULTY AND STAFF 5. EXPAND LEADERSHIP AND CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES 6. KEEP PACE WITH CUTTING-EDGE TECHNOLOGY ADVANCESANNUAL GIFTS ALSO INCREASE DONOR PARTICIPATION RATES, WHICH ARE OFTEN INFLUENTIAL FACTORS IN NATIONWIDE COLLEGE RANKINGS AND FUNDING DECISIONS BY POTENTIAL CORPORATE AND FOUNDATION GRANT MAKERS. SUCH ADDITIONAL REVENUE SOURCES ARE ESSENTIAL TO OFFSET TUITION INCREASES AND SUPPLEMENT STATE SUPPORT. UNRESTRICTED GIFTS TO THE CITADEL CONTINUE THE COLLEGE'S LONGSTANDING TRADITION OF PROVIDING CADETS AND GRADUATE STUDENTS WITH AN EXCEPTIONAL EDUCATION IN A DISCIPLINED ENVIRONMENT, DEEP BONDS AND LASTING FRIENDSHIPS, AND ABOVE ALL, THE ABILITY AND CONFIDENCE TO FACE WHATEVER CHALLENGES COME THEIR WAY.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2023 – Dec 31, 2023Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$10.8MScholarship Support Program
SCHOLARSHIPS: SCHOLARSHIPS ALLOW THE CITADEL TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN PROMISING CADETS AND STUDENTS. APPROXIMATELY 56% OF THE CITADEL'S 2,300-MEMBER CORPS OF CADETS RECEIVE INSTITUTIONALLY PROVIDED, DONOR-FUNDED SCHOLARSHIP SUPPORT. THE CITADEL'S OFFICE OF FINANCIAL AID AND SCHOLARSHIPS AWARDS APPROXIMATELY $16 MILLION IN SCHOLARSHIPS FROM ENDOWMENTS HELD AT THE CITADEL'S AFFILIATED FOUNDATIONS, INCLUDING NEARLY $12 MILLION IN ACADEMIC MERIT- AND NEED-BASED AWARDS. SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS RANGE FROM FULL-TUITION, MERIT-BASED AWARDS TO NEED-BASED FINANCIAL AWARDS THAT SUPPORT DEDICATED CADETS WHO SIMPLY NEED HELP TO COMPLETE THEIR CITADEL EDUCATION. MOST SCHOLARSHIPS AWARDED BY THE CITADEL ARE RENEWABLE FROM ONE YEAR TO THE NEXT, PROVIDING THAT THE CADET RECIPIENT REMAINS IN GOOD STANDING AND CONTINUES TO MEET THE ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR THE AWARD. THANKS TO THE GENEROSITY OF ALUMNI AND FRIENDS OF THE COLLEGE, NEARLY THREE-QUARTERS OF THE CORPS OF CADETS RECEIVES SOME DEGREE OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TOWARD EARNING THEIR CITADEL DEGREE.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJan 1, 2023 – Dec 31, 2023Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$7.7MEnrichment Programs for Leadership
