A full year at Peres Academic Center costs $10,000 per student. Your gift, at any level, becomes a direct down payment on someone's degree.
The Challenge
Most of Them Cannot Pay for the Year Ahead
A full year costs $10,000 per student: tuition, resources, and the support that keeps someone in class through hardship. Some of our students are reserve soldiers returning to a degree they paused for war. Some commute three hours a day from the periphery. Most cannot cover that year alone.
What We Do
Three Ways We Keep Them in Class
Tuition Assistance
Direct support toward the cost of a year, from a single semester to a fully sponsored degree.
The Cost of Getting There
Books, transportation and a meal plan. The everyday expenses that decide whether a student can attend at all.
Strength in the Academy
Academic, emotional and social support for students coming back from reserve duty, so a degree they paused gets finished.
Watch
Adam Abramov's Story
Adam came back from reserve duty to a degree in information systems he had paused. "Strength in the Academy", a program of the Peres Academic Center, gave him the academic, emotional and social support he needed to finish it.
Your gift is what puts that kind of support behind the next student who needs it.
