Impact of donor support
Scholarships strengthen Thunderbird’s global impact. By reducing financial barriers, scholarship support enables students to participate fully in experiential learning, global programs and leadership opportunities. Because of our donors, Thunderbird has over 30 donor funded scholarships and fellowships that it awards students annually, each one expanding opportunity and unlocking a student's potential.
Student success extends beyond graduation. Thunderbird students have an 82% employment rate six months after graduating, a statistic made possible in part by donor-funded initiatives that strengthen career readiness.
Our global alumni give back. Over the decades, more than 18,000 T-birds have invested in the Thunderbird community and the next generation of global leaders through philanthropy.
The Thunderbird alumni network includes over 40,000 graduates across more than 130 countries, reflecting Thunderbird’s commitment to a truly global learning community. When you give, you stand alongside a global network committed to strengthening the Thunderbird legacy.
