Scholarships & Donations

Education is expensive. The cost of buying books for four typical Women's, Gender & Sexuality Studies classes for one semester is approximately $450. If the student is able to get all used books, the cost would still be about $337. Tuition and student fees come to another $2013 every semester. As you probably know, this is a huge increase from one semester to the next. While all students face these costs, some are more seriously challenged by them. You can help us change the world, one student at a time .

Education is expensive, but not as expensive as ignorance.
