2015 Endowed Scholarships and Annual Awards Established in 1948, the Quincy University Endowment provides for the long-term financial health of the University. Gifts to our 179 individual funds are invested to provide a growing, reliable source of income for scholarships and academic program enrichments, today and forever. Rooted in our Catholic Franciscan heritage, we combine real- world education with liberal arts learning to prepare students for life after college. Scholarships not only encourage and assist students who receive them, but also help Quincy University attract students who want to succeed in and serve society. Thank you for your investments in the future of QU and our students.
