In today’s college admissions marketplace, qualified
students and their parents are discriminating in the college they choose. They
worry about debt load after graduation and often find merit-based scholarships
offered by private schools to help ease their costs.
The Sutton
Scholarship was established to attract these highly qualified students to
IUP and our top-notch student experience. Thanks in part to private support
from members of our University Family, it’s working.
So far, more than 190 Sutton Scholarships have been awarded
to freshmen who have committed to coming to IUP for the 2016–17 academic
year. Representing each of IUP’s six college and boasting an average GPA of
3.86, they will become the next generation of leaders and problem solvers, and we can be proud to welcome them to our community.
Your investment in the Sutton Scholarship through the
University Family Drive is a smart one. With your support, IUP can offer
this scholarship to even more incoming freshmen and continue to increase the
caliber of students enrolled each year. Your commitment to the fund will also be
doubled by the Foundation for IUP.
Making your gift to the Foundation for IUP is easy. To

Family Drive webpage. To make an online credit card gift, visit the Secure Online Giving Form.
