Thomas More University strives to continue providing an excellent Catholic liberal art educational experience which allows students to achieve more, do more, seek more, and be more. It’s a balancing act to match the revenue brought in over the course of a year with the expenditures required to provide that experience. We thank the many generous donors who entrust the University with their investment in the future leaders that attend Thomas More each year. These students’ stories would not end in success, if they could not count on your support.

Meet Jazmine, a junior at Thomas More University double-majoring in criminal justice and sociology with a minor in law.

Through the support of scholarships like the Thomas More Award, the Saints Award, Thomas More Access Grant, and the Bensman Scholarship, her path to thriving at Thomas More University was made possible. 

Jazmine noted that, “receiving these scholarships helped me to see that my good work, ethics, determination, and long nights of studying were being seen. It made me feel valued and that all my hard work paid off.” These opportunities have been pivotal in her journey to becoming a civil rights and business lawyer. Your support allows students like Jazmine to thrive in an environment where students are not just numbers but individuals striving to be more.
