Giving

The School of Music Office of Advancement secures and stewards private and institutional support for the school’s students, faculty, programs, and activities.

Your financial contribution makes a real difference for music students at the University of Illinois by allowing future generations of talented musicians opportunities to advance their artistic and professional aspirations through financial aid, access to world-class faculty, invaluable performance opportunities, unique programs and course offerings, and other critical academic opportunities. Private funding is the critical factor in continuing the standard of excellence for our students, faculty, programs, and facilities. Gifts from our alumni and friends ensure that we can attract outstanding students and faculty to the School of Music.

Your gift of support may be unrestricted, or designated for a specific purpose or program. All contributions to the University of Illinois School of Music are tax deductible.
