Support a Scholar
Higher education is transformative in its ability to take a student who may be the first in their family to ever set foot on a college campus and turn them into an educational leader, business owner, pioneering scientist, artist, community champion or someone who influences an entire industry. Today SIUE is the number one producer of college graduates in the region.
By investing in SIUE, you add incredible strength to our ability to transform lives.

Edwardsville: SIU Edwardsville is situated on 2,660 acres of beautiful woodland atop the bluffs overlooking the natural beauty of the Mississippi River’s rich bottom land and only a short drive from downtown St. Louis, the SIUE campus is home to a diverse student body of more than 13,000. Students often tell us they fell in love with the campus on their first visit and knew then that SIUE would be their new home. We think you’ll feel the same!
