"I'm so appreciative of my
scholarship! I wouldn't be able to attend Berry without the generosity
and goodwill of others. I am so thankful to have donors who are
interested in the education of America's young people. I'm eternally
grateful"
-- Kaitlin Claire Beard
Gate of Opportunity Scholars |
Every student has a unique story, and at Berry College, that story often begins with a donor who shares our belief in the transformative power of higher education. Martha Berry planted the seeds that would grow into Berry College in 1902 as a path from poverty for local children. Today, we honor her legacy by offering a wide range of scholarships, support for which is provided by alumni and friends who choose, through their giving, to open Berry's “Gate of Opportunity” to hundreds of students each year.
