Scholarships and Fellowships

At Rensselaer, we recognize that the potential to change the world lies within each of our students, and we fully understand that continued investment in their future is critical. Gifts for scholarships are a direct connection to Rensselaer's past, present, and future, and a named endowed scholarship gives students access to a fine education, and more. Each year at the Celebration of Student Support , scholarship donors meet the students that they support.

You can support a Patroon Scholar.

Rensselaer's already excellent graduate program is targeted for growth befitting a world-class research university. Financial support for graduate students is critical to the success of the entire academic enterprise. Graduate students are essential to carrying out research, just as research is essential to graduate study - its driving force as well as its intellectual grounding. Endowed fellowship funds are investments in the future of science and technology.
