Make Your Senior Class Gift—A Tradition Since 1888!

Stack of IUP diplomasBecoming part of this tradition shows that the Class of 2025–26 is a class that

  • Values the education they’ve received.
  • Carries the same spirit and IUP pride of past IUP classes.
  • Believes in reaching out in order to give back and help future students, so they have access to the same opportunities you did.
  • Believe that what they care about can change the world.

Graduating students who make their gift of $20.25/$20.26 or more will receive philanthropy cords* to be recognized at Commencement.

Join your class by making a Senior Class Gift. Remember to select that you would like to receive your philanthropy cords on the giving form!
