Give a Gift

You know a great eduction isn’t free. But did you know YOU can help someone who hasn’t learned about CIU yet with the cost of their education?  It’s true.

Alumni Referral Grant*

If you love to talk about your school, (which we guess you do!) we want you to have a gift to offer someone new looking at coming to CIU. As you meet future students, through a natural relationship, a connection to a group of prospective students, or at an event CIU attends, you can offer a new-to-CIU prospective student a renewable Alumni Referral Grant of $1000!

You know the kind of exceptional students we are looking for and we need you to help us find them.  If you know students who have not yet applied to CIU, the Alumni Referral Grant is a great way to point them toward CIU to check us out.

Legacy Grant*

You’ve had a great CIU experience and now your child or grandchild is looking for that same great experience.  Our CIU alumni can offer their children and grandchildren the renewable Legacy Grant, of $1000!

What a special occasion for family members to share the unique CIU experience across the generations! 

*Students may receive either the Alumni Referral Grant orthe Legacy Grant.

Church Matching Grant

The church is a great source of support for our CIU students; not only spiritual and emotional, but financial support as well.  Our Church Matching Grant program allows churches to invest in their people by donating to specific students while CIU matches the first $1000.

If you have questions about these grants or any other questions about financial assistance, email Student Financial Services or call (800) 777-2227 ext. 5036 and they can help you with what you need.
