You are the foundation for the success of 精东影业 students. Thanks to your generosity, over 400 students received donor-funded endowed or annual scholarships in the 2021-2022 academic year.
Endowed scholarships, which exist in perpetuity, create a legacy that lasts from one generation to the next because the principal remains intact, while only a portion of the earnings is used to provide financial aid. Endowed scholarships may be named for the supporter or for someone whom a supporter wishes to memorialize or honor.
Found a scholarship that you want to support or want to establish one that fits your giving goals? or call or email Ryan Elliott, Associate Vice President, 314-246-5963 or relliott@webster.edu.
Once the pledge is fulfilled for the endowed fund you鈥檝e created and the fund balance exceeds the fund corpus (the sum of all contributions, payments and matches made to the fund since its inception), an allocation amount is possible. The allocation amount for the upcoming academic year is set once per year as of December 31.
If the allocation, as calculated under the University鈥檚 spending policy, would reduce the fund鈥檚 market value as of December 31 to an amount less than its corpus value, the award will be limited to the difference between corpus value and the December 31 market value. If the fund鈥檚 market value as of December 31 is less than its corpus value, no allocation will be available. University policy forbids erosion of the corpus of an endowed fund by deficit spending. The University鈥檚 endowment expenditure rate is established by its Board of Trustees. Currently, it is the average of the preceding 12 quarters as of the preceding December 31, multiplied by 4.5%, less administration fees.
Fund Corpus: The sum of all contributions, payments and matches made to the fund since its inception.
Fund Balance: The total amount in the fund, including fund corpus plus fund return.
Allocation Amount: The amount of payout to be awarded that academic year for the donor鈥檚 designated purpose. The fund allocation is based on a 12-calendar-quarter average market value, multiplied by the rate established by the Board of Trustees, less any administrative fees. University policy forbids erosion of the corpus of an endowed fund by deficit spending.精东影业 offers scholarships for countless purposes, funded and awarded at multiple thresholds. The generosity of annual and endowed scholarship donors allows us to offer new opportunities, both in the number of scholarships available to students and the variety of scholarship opportunities.
