Create a Scholarship

Thanks to the generosity of our alumni, faculty, staff and friends, the MSU School of Architecture offers over 40 scholarships totaling more than $80,000 each year. The vast majority of these scholarships have been setup as endowments, ensuring that these scholarships will be awarded to students each and every year. Some scholarships are established in memory of loved ones, former teachers, and former employers, while others are established by firms and industry groups to support the education of our next generation of architects. The School of Architecture greatly appreciates the ongoing support from all of these scholarships.
