Together we can make Rochester – and the world – ever better.
How? Giving to Rochester is a great opportunity to support something you’re passionate about, show pride in your school and in your class. Generous gifts from alumni make a Rochester education possible today. Alumni that came before us helped to shape our experiences at Rochester and now it is our turn!

Every gift supports the University's national ranking. Publications such as U.S. News & World Report factor in rates of alumni participation when determining rankings. Every alumni gift—including yours—can help raise Rochester’s rankings. |
 |
Full tuition only pays for about 70% of the cost of a Rochester education. Alumni support helps to cover the balance. |
 |
Alumni support supplements tuition costs for the 88% of Rochester students who receive financial aid. |
 |
Every gift helps the University raise money. Corporations and foundations, which provide millions of dollars in support to Rochester, base their awards more on alumni participation than on total dollars raised. Every alumni gift—including yours—has a multiplier effect. |
 |
Every gift enables the University to save money. Bond rating agencies factor-in fundraising performance when determining the interest rate Rochester will pay when it borrows money. Every alumni gift—including yours—means less money paid out. |
There is no better time to raise your hand with your fellow classmates in support of Rochester – than during your reunion year.
