The College Fund at Buffalo State, also known as the Annual Fund, supports hundreds of scholarships and awards for deserving students, high-quality learning experiences from nationally known experts, funds for research and scholarship by students and faculty members, improvements to campus facilities and grounds, and much more.
The GRIT Scholarship is used to provide merit-based scholarships to Buffalo State students, not based on GPA but based on a student's demonstrated GRIT: Guts, Resilience, Impact, and Tenacity. Eligibility is based on the nomination of a caring faculty member or campus advocate, and the scholarship is renewable upon the continued nomination by that faculty member.

By setting up a flexible endowed scholarship, you can see the benefits of your generosity now. A flexible endowed scholarship is a combination of a planned gift and an annual gift. Every year, you donate a specified amount, usually the interest to be generated by the endowment’s eventual worth. The endowment itself is deferred until it can be fulfilled with a planned gift.
