Light the way
Did you know nearly all (98 percent) of our student body receives some form of financial aid? Your gift to the Canisius Fund provides essential funding for tuition assistance and scholarships, making the dream of a Canisius education a financial reality for many deserving students.
{ T he financial aid I received made my attending Canisius financially
possible. I wanted to attend Canisius because of the hands-on learning experiences in my field of study, which are not often available to undergraduate students at other schools. Having always wanted to get involved in autism research, I am fulfilling this goal at a relatively young age through my work with the Institute for Autism Research on campus. The experience is preparing me for my career goals and strengthening my passion to help children who have developmental and neurological disorders.

Fuel the future
With nearly 150 years of excellence as a hallmark, it’s no surprise Canisius offers some of the best programs in the state, country and world. Your gift to the Canisius Fund provides essential funding to ensure this tradition continues – not only for the glory of the college but for the benefit of students today and tomorrow.
{ To compete in and then win the CFA [Chartered Financial Analyst] Institute Research Challenge against 4,000 students from 70 countries was just surreal. The experience not only set me and my teammates apart for future professional pursuits, it taught us the importance of being the most prepared, and even moreso, working as a team. We worked together toward something greater than our individual selves, and in the end this gave us the winning edge.

Ignite the passion
Each year, thousands of Canisius students serve others through participation in service projects and immersion trips, making an impact in the local and international communities. Your gift to the Canisius Fund provides essential funding for programs that strengthen our Jesuit mission to help students become men and women for others.
{ T raveling to Nicaragua and Costa Rica to participate in the Pre-Med
Center’s medical mission trip pushed me out of my comfort zone in many ways, and ultimately allowed me to grow and become a more patient and compassionate person. Although I could have completed a physician assistant program in five years at another institution, I would never have changed the experience I had at Canisius. I not only grew academically in my studies but learned more about the world around me and what I can do about the injustices that still remain in it.
