Welcome Freshmen

Write A Message of Encouragement

Write a short message (no more than 100 words) of encouragement to an incoming freshman. It will be printed and delivered to a new student during Welcome Weekend in August. Our prayer is to gather 360 notes, one for every member of the Class of 2030.

Give a Gift of Encouragement

At Asbury, 100% of full-time traditional undergraduate students receive financial aid. Many of our students would be unable to pursue an Asbury education without your generous support. 

Honor the Class of 2030 with a financial gift toward student scholarships.

As a tangible act of encouragement, and a seed planted in Kingdom soil, consider honoring the Class of 2030 with a gift to student scholarships: $20.30, $203.00, $2,030, or any amount the Lord leads you to give.

Why Your Gift Matters

As an alum, you understand how one experience, one relationship, or even one moment can shape a life. Your note might give courage to a student on their first day away from home. Your gift might be the reason a student is able to attend Asbury.

Every year, our alumni help us welcome the incoming freshman class with their wisdom and support. This year, we continue that tradition with the Valiant Class of 2030.

Thank you so much for giving your resources so that I can have help in coming to school at Asbury. It means so much to me that someone would do that, especially not personally knowing the recipient. Music is the joy of my life, and getting to learn it and make it and share it with others HERE, at Asbury, is a gift I will never take for granted."
Emily Class of 2028
My parents are missionaries. But thanks to donors, I could come to Asbury because of the scholarship provided for me. And I promise you that my education here won't be wasted. I will grow as a person that really reflects Christ in the world. Thank you so much again and may God richly bless you."
