The mission of the Virginia Foundation for Independent Colleges is to advance the distinctive values and strengths of these smaller, undergraduate, residential Virginia member colleges. We do this by securing financial support from the private sector, increasing visibility, facilitating innovative and collaborative initiatives between the colleges, and supporting initiatives which ensure that this personalized educational experience remains an affordable choice for tomorrow's citizen-leaders. The Virginia Foundation for Independent Colleges provides a look into 15 of Virginia's finest private colleges and universities. The VFIC creates partnerships between individuals, the business community, and the 15 institutions. Support from unrestricted donations is used for financial aid, scholarships, and other campus priorities such as technology and library support.
