Senior Parent Gift

Support the Class of 2022 Scholarship

Honor your graduate’s achievements, while helping to make a Wesleyan education accessible to a future student. This year’s Senior Parent Gift seeks to raise $200,000 for a scholarship that will fund a student for four years at Wesleyan. Parents and other family members may designate their gift in honor of their graduate, a special faculty or staff member, a coach, or other influential mentor.

Join this effort and make your gift today. With you, more is possible.

Think back to the beginning...

To the pride you felt when your student was accepted. To the excitement (and tears) of move-in day. To all they have learned and accomplished since they first arrived at Wesleyan. Soon, your Wesleyan senior will receive their hard earned diploma, and it will be time for pride, excitement (and tears) all over again, even more so given the resiliency and perseverance demonstrated by members of the Class of 2022 given these unexpected circumstances and this challenging time in their lives.

 “The people at Wesleyan have taught me that we do not necessarily need to have the same experiences to relate to one another. Wesleyan has meant that I was able to express my own ever-changing narrative”.

Caroline Bhupathi '20
Student Commencement Speaker

Think about how you can help others…

...to experience those same emotions.

...to achieve those same milestones.

...to take pride in all that they have accomplished.

“From the first time we set foot on Wesleyan’s campus, we knew it was different.

At many schools there is an unspoken but clear divide between the professors and the students, but at Wesleyan, it’s a partnership. It’s clear that, from the generosity of their time to the level and depth of the interest they display for their students, the professors truly care.”
