The University of Cincinnati (UC) has announced a $5 million gift from an anonymous donor in support of scholarships, internships, and expanded career services at its regional colleges, UC Blue Ash College and UC Clermont College.
The gift includes $1.5 million in support of paid internships and cooperative education programs, including endowing the UC Clermont paid internship program, the Cronin Career Scholars Fund, and establishing and endowing a new UC Blue Ash Career Services Endowment Fund. The remaining $3.5 million will provide scholarship support for students at both campuses and contribute to faculty research support at UC Clermont.
Since 2018, the donor has awarded the UC system $7.26 million, with previous gifts focused on UC Clermont.
“This incredible act of generosity provides foundational support to our students and their future,” said UC president Neville G. Pinto. “We are truly appreciative of this visionary gift, which creates fundamental opportunities for our regional colleges to expand real-world learning and job coaching, while also investing in research and innovation.”
