Refer a student: Gold & White Alumni Grant
You may know college-bound students who would be a great fit for Geneva and who would benefit from a Geneva education. As alumni, when you refer college-bound students to Geneva, you qualify them to receive the gift that only alumni can give, the Gold & White Alumni Grant. The program provides $4,000 over four years to students referred by alumni through the program. In the fall of 2021, it brought 73 students into the incoming freshman class.
This year Geneva College President, Calvin L. Troup, PhD, announces a new Gold & White Challenge to encourage even more alumni referrals. As part of the Challenge, he set the goal of 100 students referred through the Gold & White Program and 75 of those referred students to apply to Geneva by January 15, 2022. We’re at 90 referrals and 61 applicants so far—help us reach our goal! Read more or make a referral using the following link.
