DUE Dean's Excellence Fund
Support Student Scholarships!

UC Irvine’s Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE) offers students various opportunities and resources to support their success at UC Irvine. Our goal is to build a dynamic community that empowers students from all backgrounds to achieve their academic dreams and lay the foundation for their future success. One of the most impactful ways that donors can enhance students’ experiences at UC Irvine is by giving a gift to the DUE Dean’s Excellence Fund.


This year, all Giving Day gifts to the DUE Dean’s Excellence Fund will support student summer scholarships. These scholarships will allow students to enroll in summer courses, which will help them graduate on time or early, enable them to pursue a minor and/or other majors, explore new academic interests, and lessen the financial burden of getting an education.

Every $1,500 raised equals another student scholarship.

This year, your impact will be doubled! All gifts given in support of summer scholarships will be matched as a Dean’s Excellence Priority.

Your generous support will make a lasting difference in the lives of our deserving students. We deeply appreciate your commitment to shaping the success of our undergraduates, so please consider donating today!


To discuss additional ways to support the DUE Dean’s Excellence Fund, please contact Jennifer Smith at 702-290-6402 or Jennifer.Smith@uci.edu
