McLean County Scholarship
The Illinois Wesleyan University Associates established the McLean County Scholarship fund in 2018. Because of extremely generous
donor contributions toward this fund, Illinois Wesleyan University has seen an increase
of 56% in McLean County student enrollment since the launch of the McLean County Scholarship
and the number of applications continues to increase.
The Power of Local Support
“The McLean County Scholarship Fund allows me to stay connected and give back to the broader community. This scholarship not only lightens the financial burden of tuition, but it also motivates me to continue working hard and striving for excellence. Your generosity serves as a reminder to stay committed to my goals and to one day give back to students in the same way.”
