THE IMPACT OF LEADERSHIP SUPPORT BOSTON COLLEGE ○ 2023–2024
Your generosity has made all the difference for Boston College This past year, the University continued its upward trajectory, admitting another class of outstanding Eagles. Hailing from all 50 states, three U.S. territories, and 91 countries, the Class of 2028 is as diverse as it is academically exceptional. In fact, 95 percent rank in the top 10 percent of their high school class, and 14 percent of admitted students will be the first in their families to attend college. Here at BC, they’ll spread their wings, discover whom they’re called to be, and grow into men and women for others. Donors like you make this possible. Your support is instrumental in the formation of the next generation of world-changing scientists and thinkers, pioneering innovators and entrepreneurs, selfless educators and leaders, and so many more. BC’s Jesuit, Catholic roots are deepened by today’s Eagles and passed on to those who will follow in their footsteps. The University is profoundly grateful for your commitment.
FINANCIAL AID & SCHOLARSHIPS A Boston College education is an extraordinary gift, opening the door to a transformative experience that expands the horizons of what’s possible for students, no matter their financial situation. Your philanthropy not only serves
as a bridge between our students and their towering personal, professional, and educational goals, it also supplements the BC’s use of federal, state, and institutional funds.
