We Are Hoosiers: Made Possible

When you contribute to the IU Varsity Club Annual Giving Fund, you are helping IU to compete with other Big Ten universities for the most talented student-athletes. Your support translates into tuition, room and board, books, and other necessities that are part of an IU education.

Your donation goes to support scholarship opportunities for IU student-athletes. That means giving a start to student-athletes who will lead first in athletic competition, then in their careers and communities.

When you commit to providing scholarship opportunities to student-athletes at IU, you receive a number of Varsity Club donor benefits and are eligible to receive priority points used for the allocation of seats at football and basketball games. It's our way of saying thanks for giving IU student-athletes the opportunity to make the big moments happen in the classroom and on game day.
