Your support to the Parents Fund can come in a variety of ways. The Parents Fund is an unrestricted annual fund that offers parents and grandparents a special gift-giving opportunity. Unrestricted funds increase the University's flexibility in responding to unexpected needs as they occur. Contributions to the Parents Fund help to enhance computer facilities, make improvements to library collections, advance tutoring programs and increase scholarship aid. I support Boston University by paying tuition.
Tuition covers approximately fifty-five percent of the total cost to educate a student.
Gifts from alumni, parents, and friends are therefore critical in helping Boston University maintain the highest level of academic excellence. Every gift is important because each one builds participation, and increases Boston University's ability to achieve its dollar goal. We ask each family to participate to the best of its ability. Please remember that your gift is tax deductible. The Parents Fund Committee offers a unique opportunity for parents to share their enthusiasm for Boston University with others.
