Giving at South Carolina

Affordable Access

We think a USC education should be an option for any qualified student. We make classes accessible by offering degree programs at eight campuses and 15 locations throughout the state and online.

You provide affordable access


Through Student Scholarships

Your gift is a legacy. Ninety-one percent of our freshmen receive financial aid. You can help us maintain and expand those scholarship opportunities. 

On Our USC System Campuses

Your gift is essential. Forty percent of all bachelor's and graduate degrees from public institutions in our state are awarded by the University of South Carolina system, thanks to donors like you.

Through Palmetto College and Online Programs

Your gift reaches across boundaries. Not every student can leave home to study. Our students can earn degrees at one of our campuses around the state or online because of your generosity. 

Through the Carolina Fund

Your gift matters. Your donation to the Carolina Fund continues our mission to uphold academic excellence, enhance the student experience, fund high-impact research and offer affordable access to the University of South Carolina. Contributions to this fund are dispersed to areas where need is the greatest.

 


I give back because I benefited from someone's generosity and I want someone to benefit from mine.
