What is the Alumni Association?
What Scholarships Are Available?
The mission of the Franklin Pierce Alumni Association is to engage and foster strong lifelong bonds between the University and its alumni body. The Alumni Association works to promote, maintain and establish networking and social events & programs that will represent the interests of all alumni.
Each graduate is part of a diverse, ever growing, worldwide community of nearly 25,000 alumnus. The Alumni Association understands the importance that tradition plays on and off the variety of campuses and values the past and those who have come before us while building for the Pierce's future.
Why do we Award Scholarships?We believe that it is necessary, as alumni devoted to the efforts of the University,
to be supportive of the students who contribute to the Franklin Pierce community.
Thus, we award scholarships in an effort to:
1) Recognize students who are leaders.
2) Recognize students who demonstrate a commitment to their community.
3) Commend students who have demonstrated academic excellence.
4) Help in lessening the financial burden for students who demonstrate need.
The Alumni Association receives royalties on your purchases from our affinity partnerships, such as Liberty Mutual, that goes to help fund the alumni scholarship program, which are awarded to selected undergraduate and graduate students. You get great discounts on services and products you use, and supporting these partners helps ensure the future of the Alumni Scholarship program at Franklin Pierce.
