Give to the Sally McDonnell Barksdale Honors College
The Honors College merges intellectual rigor with community action. We offer an education like that at prestigious private liberal arts schools and universities, but at a far lower cost. We attract a diverse body of high-performing students and prepare citizen scholars who are committed to the public good and driven to find solutions.

Your Support Matters

Student Success
Scholarships transform lives. Even with competitive tuition rates, it still can be challenging for many Ole Miss students and families to pay for college. Your support enables the next generation of researchers, innovators, and civic leaders to fulfill their potential and make a difference in our state and beyond.

Research Funds
Funding research helps students who are traveling for research, completing laboratory work, engaged in residency programs, or who simply to have uninterrupted time for analysis, writing, and creative endeavors. Research funding can also help support faculty members who lead student creative endeavors, lab research, and independent research projects.

Student Internships
Our faculty believes in hands-on experiences for students, achieved through internships that are often unpaid or underpaid. Your support could help create a named fellowship to support students working in unpaid or underpaid internships or research opportunities, especially those of short duration, as well as sponsored internships.

Fellowships
Funding fellowships helps our students experience unique learning opportunities and turn academic success into real-world success. These fellowships can be used to help offset the costs of extended travel and independent research abroad or to fund coursework at prestigious universities like Oxford or Cambridge. These funds open the door to transformative experiences for students across all majors and make a lasting impact.
