Emory Day of Giving 2021 has ended, but you can still support Emory by clicking here.
Oxford College

Everywhere you look on Oxford’s campus, you can see the impact of your generous gifts. Applications to Oxford are at historic highs, and the number of competitive applicants who need financial aid has risen. In order to make Oxford accessible to students—regardless of their family income level—we need to increase the size and number of our scholarships. We also want to expand our travel program, grow our already acclaimed leadership program, and increase opportunities for internships that prepare students for life beyond Oxford and Emory. 

Without the support of alumni and friends like you, we will be unable to achieve these goals. We are counting on you to help continue Oxford’s emphasis on highly effective, personal approaches to education for generations to come by giving today.

For Emory Day of Giving, we are highlighting these giving opportunities to support experiential learning:

The Brook International Travel Endowment supports Oxford College students who are first-time international travelers with airfare for study abroad and travel courses.

The Tarbutton Leadership Fellows supports Oxford students as they develop as leaders in Oxford’s more than 80 clubs, organizations, varsity sports, and programs.
