Annual Scholarships

Creating a named annual scholarship is a meaningful way to create a lasting legacy and honor family and friends. As higher education becomes increasingly expensive, annual scholarship funds enable the College to offer need- and merit-based scholarships to the best students without tapping annual operating funds.

To learn more about the many benefits of creating an annual scholarship, please contact the Development Office at 800-LFC-ALUM or alumni@lakeforest.edu.
