Since 1968, the merit-based President's Endowed Scholarship program has been inspiring high-achieving high school seniors to make Texas A&M University their school of choice. Students who are considered for the scholarship must have either a 1300 SAT or 30 ACT score or have attained a semifinalist or commended standing in the scholarship competitions sponsored by the National Merit Scholarship Corp. or College Board.

Giving a PES

A PES can be established by an individual or group with a one-time gift of $100,000 or with a series of installments over a period of up to five years. The endowment established by the gift funds a stipend for one student for four years, plus a bonus for a study abroad experience. Since we manage the endowment to pay for the current student scholarship while simultaneously providing for the long-term growth of the principal, you'll be supporting students in perpetuity.

President's Endowed Scholarships can be named in memory or honor of a person, class or organization of your choice. PES gifts to the Foundation are tax-deductible and may be made in the form of cash, securities, real estate or other real property. Many employers also offer matching gift programs that could support your gift of a PES.

Recognition

Donors of President's Endowed Scholarships will receive a large plaque honoring the person or persons for whom the scholarship is named. A smaller plaque is added to the permanent display on the master recognition board located in the Memorial Student Center. In addition, new PES donors are recognized in Spirit magazine.

"This scholarship has been such a blessing to both me and my parents. Because of the generosity of the Duggans and others like them, I have been able to attend the school of my dreams, focus on my studies, get involved and enjoy being a college student without having to worry about financial issues."
