College of Arts & Sciences

The College of Arts and Sciences is excited to launch three new funds that will provide our undergraduate students with additional support, programming, and opportunities for success. Your generosity to these funds makes a powerful impact on our students. 

  • First Gen Trailblazers Fund will provide scholarships and programs for our Arts and Sciences students who will be the first in their families to graduate from college. The opportunity to receive a UK degree will transform the trajectories of our students and their families.
  • Workforce Ready Wildcats Fund will provide our Arts and Sciences students with hands-on opportunities including internships, career preparation, professional development, research, and community engagement to prepare them to be competitive in the workforce.
  • The Finish Line Fund will provide critical funds to our Arts and Sciences students who need additional financial assistance to complete their degrees. 

Our engaged and dedicated A&S alumni are offering a $20,000 matching challenge to amplify the impact of your gift. For every 50 gifts made, an additional $5,000 is unlocked to support students, up to a total of $20,000.
 
Give now to make a difference in the lives of our students!
