Since our founding 55 years ago, RSM has been committed to developing leaders who use business as a force for positive change. 

Just like it was for our very first students, studying at RSM today is an extraordinary opportunity. But it is not always a simple one. Rising living costs, housing shortages, and financial uncertainty are putting real pressure on students from many different backgrounds.

That is why, this holiday season, we invite you to support an RSM Scholarship Fund.

Scholarships help remove financial barriers, support students facing hardship, and ensure that ambition, not personal circumstance, determines who can study at RSM.

Scholarships don’t remove every worry. But they do offer something vital: breathing room. The chance to focus on learning, rather than constantly worrying about making ends meet.

When you support an RSM Scholarship Fund, you help to:

• Remove financial barriers for talented students
• Keep RSM’s learning environment open, diverse, and inclusive
• Support the next generation of responsible leaders

This is how the values that shaped RSM’s past continue into its future.

If you’re able, please consider supporting an RSM Scholarship Fund this winter. Every gift, whatever its size, makes a meaningful difference to a future student who needs it now.

Thank you for being part of the RSM community, and for helping ensure that the next 55 years are shaped by opportunity, fairness, and positive change.
