Lycoming College Priorities

The Lycoming College community makes a collective difference by funding special projects on campus, and your gifts have a profound impact on students and create opportunities that distinguish Lycoming on campus and abroad. The following are some of the College's priorities where support is needed. Check back often, as new priorities may be added that align with your passion.

• Area of Highest Need (The Lycoming Fund)

  Gifts of all sizes help to strengthen Lycoming's 21st-century liberal arts and sciences education, and by supporting the Lycoming Fund, you are able to play an important role in shaping the lives of students each and every year. Your gifts provide immediate support for academics, scholarships, research, global experiences, music programs, athletics, internships, and more – enabling our students to think deeply and act boldly. Inspire greatness and ensure success for the next generation of Warriors by making a gift.

• New Academic Programs & Student Success Fund

  The New Academic Programs & Student Success Fund advances emerging opportunities that enhance the College's academic curriculum and student success, including expanded and innovative majors, minors, and programs. Make a gift.

• Campus Facilities

  Lycoming College has a breathtaking campus, and the maintenance and enhancement of our facilities are a top priority in order to provide a first-rate experience to students who are earning a leading liberal arts and sciences education. Make a gift.

• Athletics (Warrior Club)

  Athletic gifts enhance the student-athlete experience and ensure that our coaches and student-athletes have everything they need to compete at the highest level. Members of the Warrior Club enrich the Lycoming community by supporting the tradition of academic excellence, athletic competition, and the preparation of future Lycoming alumni. Make a gift.

• Endowed Scholarships

  With a minimum gift of $50,000, donors can establish an endowed scholarship, which provides a stable and predictable source of financial aid that will be awarded to future generations of students in perpetuity. If you are interested in establishing an endowed scholarship, please contact Robb Dietrich, assistant vice president for major and planned gifts, at dietrich@lycoming.edu or 570-321-4401.

• Student Retention Fund

  The Student Retention Fund provides critical resources for students performing well academically who are at risk of not completing their degree because of unforeseen financial hardships. Make a gift.

• Student Emergency Fund

  The Student Emergency Fund supports students facing extraordinary hardships in ways that extend beyond simply paying for tuition. Make a gift.
