Endowed Named Scholarship
An Endowed Named Scholarship creates a lasting legacy by providing
scholarship support in perpetuity. The principal is invested through
AUA's endowment, which is professionally managed by the University of
California (UC). Only the investment earnings are awarded as
scholarships, preserving the principal while generating sustainable
support for generations of AUA students.
Endowed scholarships may be established in honor or memory of a loved
one, creating a meaningful and enduring tribute. A minimum commitment
of $50,000, payable over a period of up to five years, is required to
establish an Endowed Named Scholarship. The full benefit to the
student will be realized once the endowment principal reaches
$50,000.

Annual Named Scholarship
Full support — $6,000 | Partial support — $3,000
The annual cost of attendance at AUA is approximately $11,000 per
student. However, AUA subsidizes tuition for Armenian citizens, who
pay between $6,110 and $7,460, depending on their field of study.
Today, approximately half of AUA students depend on need-based aid
from the university.
An Annual Named Scholarship may be established with a minimum gift of
$6,000 to fully fund one student's tuition need or $3,000 to provide
partial tuition assistance for an academic year.
Most donors choose multi-year pledges so their scholar is supported
from first year through graduation.
Donors may choose to designate their scholarship to support students
pursuing a specific field of study, aligning their philanthropy with
the academic discipline or profession they are most passionate about.
