Northwestern Alumni Association Club Scholarships

NU Club Scholarships

The Northwestern Alumni Association Club Scholarship program is dedicated to supporting area students and those with affiliation to affinities and special interest groups who attend Northwestern. With dozens of local and national alumni clubs participating, our alumni can have a significant and meaningful impact on the lives of Northwestern students who live in their geographic area or share a connection through an affinity or special interest group.

Why Contribute?

Scholarships are essential to help many students attend Northwestern, and a gift to a Club Scholarship will ensure that funds are directed to the best and brightest students with the greatest need.

Club scholarships help offset the “self-help” portion of the student’s financial package, which reduces the amount of loans, work-study, etc. that students need. It does not change any other awards that are given in the form of grants or other aid.

Our goal for this project is to raise $7,500. This money will go towards supporting local and national club scholarship efforts and allow clubs to offer additional students aid or increase awards for the upcoming academic year.

Please join your fellow Wildcats in helping the brightest students from your hometown, affinity or special interest get a Northwestern education!
