Support Our Students

All Notre Dame architecture students begin their experience by mastering the art of drawing by hand and the use of watercolors, while recognizing that technology offers invaluable digital tools to designers who have mastered foundational skills.
Gifts to the School allow us to continue our tradition of excellence:
- Enabling us to engage the next generation of architectural leaders
- Providing innovative and unique learning opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students
- Driving faculty and student participation and leadership in groundbreaking research
Architecture Student Opportunity Fund
Support the School in promoting an environment that reduces economic barriers that empowers students to thrive. Established to assist undergraduate and graduate students with limited economic resources with the costs of architectural equipment, supplies, and other resources and opportunities, the Architecture Student Opportunity Fund offers funding to eligible students on an annual basis. This fund was established through the leadership of dedicated alumni and friends of the School to help ensure all students have the opportunity to flourish.
The tools required for study are the lifeblood of the student architectural experience.
- A gift of $25 supports a student's purchase of an architectural scale and adjustable triangle.
- A gift of $100 supports a student's purchase of a set of watercolor brushes, pigments, and paper.
- A gift of $250 supports a student's purchase of a 42-inch parallel rule.
Every gift to this fund has a real and lasting impact for a student.
