Maroon & Silver Society supports scholarships for Augsburg's finest students

The Maroon & Silver Society was established in 1999 to recognize donors whose annual support provides opportunities for the finest students to receive an education.

The Maroon & Silver Society is open to all alumni, parents and friends of Augsburg who make annual gifts of $1,000 or more to sponsor a student and pledge their commitment for four years. With more than 85 percent of Augsburg students receiving some form of financial aid, Maroon & Silver Society members help keep an Augsburg education affordable for a broad range of students in a diverse student body.

Four levels of support provide scholarship assistance:

The Augsburg Grant ($1,000 gift annually) is awarded to students who qualify and demonstrate need. These gifts make a significant contribution toward the education of many traditional day and weekend students.

Regents' Scholars ($2,500 annually) are first-year students who rank in the top 30 percent of their high school class.

Legacy Scholars ($4,000 annually) are qualified family members of Augsburg alumni, current students or ELCA pastors.

President's Scholars ($10,000 annually) are students who rank in the top 15 percent of their high school class and are selected competitively.

Maroon & Silver Society members are invited to the president's dinner at the annual Advent Vespers, receive regular updates on the strategic plan and vision of the College and meet students who benefit from their support at an annual spring event.
