Making an Impact

Many SLU alumni clubs sponsor scholarships for future graduates, giving back to the next generation of Billikens and creating connections in their hometown.

 I am eternally grateful for the generous donations made by alumni from my hometown to support my scholarship during my time at Â鶹´«Ã½. I have been fortunate to receive the Chicago Regional Scholarship for the past three years and it has meant a lot to me to feel supported by my hometown while I embark on my academic journey."
