We have now crossed $258 million.

Those dollars have had a tremendous impact on Bryn Mawr’s enduring commitment to academic excellence.

Our society’s challenges are more complex and interconnected than ever, and require theoretical sophistication, interdisciplinarity, practical application, top notch faculty, and state of the art spaces. Your support has a direct impact on what our faculty teach and what our students learn.

Defy Expectation has helped us establish more than 72 new scholarships; endow 6 new faculty positions; renovate and add to the Park Science Center; build a new dorm as well as the Enid Cook ’31 Center (our Black Cultural Center and residence); and launch new programs such as the Career and Civic Engagement Center (formerly known as LILAC), THRIVE (our first-year college transition and life skills course), 360° Course Cluster Program, Data Science across the curriculum, our innovative Digital Competencies Program, and new majors, minors, and dual-degree programs.

And we’re not done.

Defy Expectation is allowing us to break ground on a new Health and Wellness Center, complete phase II of the Park Science renovation, build on our digital scholarship programs, provide more scholarship opportunities, increase the number of extern- and internship opportunities for our students, and more.

We can’t do any of this without you, our Donors. Thank you for setting an even higher new standard for Bryn Mawr and for being a part of Defy Expectation.

Your participation matters.

With the help of our alumnae/i, families and friends, Bryn Mawr has proven itself, over and over again, to be a thriving vibrant community of scholars. You can Expect Bryn Mawr to continue that legacy.
