PRIORITY ONE: Scholarships

Our strength as a top Catholic university is inextricably linked to the strength of our students. We believe that promise and potential—not ability to pay—should define a student's future. Private investments in scholarships turn that belief into reality.

Nearly 97% of undergraduate students receive scholarships or financial aid, yet 35% still face a financial gap that could keep them from becoming Tommies. Your support can be the difference-maker—igniting potential and empowering the next generation of Tommies to find their purpose and make a lasting impact on our world.

Breaking Barriers, Building Futures: Dougherty Family College

Rooted in our Catholic mission to uphold the dignity of every person and advance the common good, the Dougherty Family College (DFC) is transforming lives by closing educational attainment and workforce gaps.

Located on the university's downtown Minneapolis campus, DFC offers a rigorous two-year associate degree designed to propel students toward academic achievement, career success, and a seamless transition to a four-year college. Join us in empowering the next generation of leaders.

Supporting Those Who Served: Veterans Resource Center

The Paul and Sarah Karon Veterans Resource Center is more than a support hub—it’s a home base where veterans can access financial assistance, academic advising, and mental health support, as well as a welcoming space to connect with fellow service members.

St. Thomas is proud to honor the service and sacrifice of our 200+ veteran students. Join us in saluting our troops as we work to be the most military-friendly university in the Upper Midwest.
