Endowments
The goal of Cal Poly Athletics is to recruit and develop the brightest student-athletes who will perform successfully in the classroom and compete at the championship level in every sport. An essential part of that equation involves financial commitment to each individual team. Adequate funding helps us offer scholarships, provide the best facilities possible, hire the best staff, and support each team in meeting their day-to-day operational needs.
Athletic scholarship costs make up a significant portion of the Cal Poly Athletics operating expenses. In 2011, Athletics will pay over . Growing our Endowments is essential to the long term sustainability of our sports. It will allow us the flexibility to use other funds raised for operating needs and facility enhancements. Further, an endowed scholarship lasts forever and will fund in perpetuity many incredible student-athletes in the generations to come.
