Endowed Scholarships
- Like so many other families, you can honor or memorialize family, friends, a favorite professor, or even your pastor or church by creating an endowed scholarship in their name. The procedure is simple:
- Your initial gift of any amount is invested with the Baptist Foundation of Texas. The scholarship is named and specifications for scholarship recipients.
- Additional gifts are added to the body of the endowment as received by the University.
- Once the endowment reaches $25,000, the corpus begins to generate interest.
- The interest is withdrawn annually to create a scholarship or scholarships for students in need. The corpus remains intact into perpetuity.
Wayland Baptist University provides comprehensive, no obligation assistance in planning gifts that are meaningful to you and will benefit future students. Our Advancement staff will gladly help you examine the most effective plans for your situation. Contact Bobby McCloud at 806-742-9517 or bobby.mccloud@wbu.edu to discuss endowed scholarship opportunities.

Denim & Diamonds Scholarship Gala
- Wayland's Lubbock campus is one of 13 external campuses around the world which embrace the university's commitment to academic excellence, devotion to individual service, and dedication to a Christian heritage that stretches back more than a century. Total enrollment at the 14 locations during the fall 2014 term stood at 5,536 students, with enrollment at the Lubbock campus being the third-largest, at 572.
- As one of the least-expensive Christian universities in the country, scholarship dollars buy more faith-based education at Wayland than virtually any other place in America. Nevertheless, more than 90 percent of all Wayland students - including those at the Lubbock campus - receive financial aid, and more than 54 percent need more than we can give.
- The Wayland Baptist University Lubbock campus currently manages a total of 12 endowed scholarship funds, valued at more than $1.5 million. With your support, we will grow those numbers.
- Thank you in advance for your help!
