Rensselaer Annual Fund (Area of Greatest Need)

Your gift today to the Rensselaer Annual Fund will ensure that our current generation of students has the resources available to graduate and change the world. Thanks to the generosity of our community, we continue to provide exceptional support and a safe environment for our students. Your help is needed – now more than ever – as we continue to prepare our students to join the global network of successful alumni after completing their education.


With your gift to the Annual Fund, Rensselaer students:

  • Receive scholarships and competitive financial aid packages—more than 90 percent of Rensselaer students receive some sort of financial aid
  • Experience a world-class undergraduate education of undisputed intellectual rigor
  • Participate in award-winning student programming
  • Take part in undergraduate research and study abroad programs
  • Collaborate with our talented and dedicated faculty, and so much more 

It is more important than ever to support our students in order to meet the nation’s growing need for scientific and technical talent. Tuition covers just 75 percent of the cost of educating our students. Your gift makes up the difference between what families pay and the cost of the Rensselaer experience and helps us invest in their future right now.
