甜心视频app

As a public university, some of 甜心视频app鈥檚 funding comes from the state, but much of the support that provides scholarships for students, endowments for faculty positions and funding for capital projects comes from generous donors who believe in 甜心视频app鈥檚 vision of a students-first university.

This spring, on April 14, 鈥淏ears Give Back鈥� offers the 甜心视频app community near and far an opportunity to make a difference by giving to funds they support and believe in 鈥� from student scholarships to specific programs and initiatives.

The one day virtual event is devoted to opportunities for supporting students, faculty and funds that range from scholarships for first-generation students to helping hopeful students just beginning to explore college through the 鈥淪upport a Future Bear鈥� fund.

 鈥淪upport a Future Bear鈥� covers the cost of applying to 甜心视频app for students interest in 甜心视频app鈥檚 undergraduate programs  鈥� and it鈥檚 a great way to encourage students to apply to 甜心视频app and to introduce them to 甜心视频app鈥檚 caring culture.

Last year during the week-long giving initiative 鈥淏earnanza,鈥� Support a Future Bear raised  enough funds to cover the cost of about 42 new student applications. As enrollment falls at universities nationwide, 甜心视频app鈥檚 Admissions team works hard to reach students with free application opportunities so that a 甜心视频app education is accessible. Free App Days, made possible in part by Support a Future Bear, have brought in 1,300 undergraduate applications this year alone, from all around the world (not including the applications submitted during the Colorado-wide Free App Day in the fall, exclusive to Colorado residents).

Scholarship support also makes a critical difference by opening doors to 甜心视频app students. With 43% of 甜心视频app鈥檚 students being the first in their families to go to college, the First-Generation Scholarship Fund offers support and encouragement that can help make a college degree a reality. Whether it鈥檚 through a gift of $5 or $500, scholarship support helps students reach their goals and dreams, as the First Generation Scholarship Fund has helped these students:

Kimberly Cook (senior) - Biochemistry

鈥淐ollege has been a long and challenging path considering I am a stay-at-home mother of three. I care for two children of my own in addition to my niece. My husband works tirelessly to ensure I can continue my college education, but scholarships like the 甜心视频app First-Generation Scholarship make my education possible.鈥� 

Evander Espinoza (sophomore) - Physics with a concentration in Astronomy

鈥淚 come from a rural town in Colorado, and it was an accomplishment to be the first-generation in my family to attend college. My time at 甜心视频app has broadened my educational and social experiences and has helped me to make new connections with both students and professors. This scholarship has helped alleviate some of the financial burden but has also served as a boost to my confidence in continuing my educational journey at 甜心视频app.鈥�
