University of New England

The fact that an increasing number of students choose to attend the University of New England - a young, private school with few resources to provide competitive financial aid - is a tribute to the quality programs, faculty, and student-centered philosophy. The University of New England has the goal of creating a University that all students can afford to attend and, when they graduate, choose to practice their professions unencumbered by financial considerations of exceptionally high debt. This vision also includes increasing student diversity dramatically by making sure that the University of New England is affordable for bright, hard-working students from all economic levels and every social stratum, whether they come from the inner-city, the suburbs or the country.

The University’s Annual Fund is the most popular vehicle through which alumni, parents and friends support the institution. Annual Fund gifts provide much needed "budget relief" and support large and important items such as:

Financial Aid
Academic support
Libraries
Campus beautification

Donors to the Annual Fund may opt to make unrestricted gifts to the Fund or may opt to designate one of the aforementioned areas to target their support.
