    Script U Scholarship Society

    The Minutemen Club is excited to announce the creation of the “Script U Scholarship Society,” a fundraising initiative created to support the growing investment Massachusetts Athletics is making in our 21 sport programs. With the expected changes in NCAA Division I athletics coming later this year, it will require us to increase our scholarship support to stay competitive. Each Script U gift will allow passionate UMass alums and fans to help UMass meet the total annual scholarship cost for UMass student-athletes.

    Donors to the Script U Society will directly support student-athlete scholarships and help our sport programs recruit, retain and develop the best and brightest from across our region, the country and internationally. Every unrestricted gift is an investment in our student-athletes and the future of academic and competitive success for UMass Athletics.
