Why give?

Student Affairs is committed to facilitating student success in and outside the classroom.

  • Room and Board grants for commuter students wanting to live on campus but cannot afford to
  • Facility Enhancements – Residence Life, especially regarding lounges and Hall Chapels; Wellness Center; AMU

Note from an Alumna

“Marquette University's Division of Student Affairs played an integral part of my college experience and inspired me to pursue a career in urban education. The wealth of experiences and skills that I gained from Student Affairs programming allowed me to discern my vocation, deepen my spirituality and participate in service programs both in and outside of Milwaukee.

My interest in urban education was ignited by the staff, the experiences, the programs, and the service opportunities offered by the Division of Student Affairs. Without the influence of the Division of Student Affairs, I am not certain I would be where I am today.” — Erin Galvin, Class of 2013
