Scripps students reflect an ever-expanding range of identities, experiences, and backgrounds. We must not only embrace those differences, but enlarge the Scripps experience so that it represents all identities, amplifies each voice, and imbues every member of our community with confidence, courage, and hope.
We will position every student to realize the full benefits of the Scripps education—one that integrates academic pursuits with social, personal, and pre-professional opportunities. Our graduates will have the knowledge, skills, and character to make a better world.
Current Initiatives
IDEA
Build a stronger, more inclusive community in which members understand, appreciate, and learn from each other’s differences of identity, experience, and access to resources. IDEA will cultivate a greater sense of belonging and enable our students to build more diverse, accessible, equitable communities in their lives after graduation. Updates
Scripps Access Initiative
Permanently increase the diversity of Scripps College’s student body as one of just 10 institutions in the US to join the Schuler Education Foundation’s access initiative, a transformative project that will enroll more high-achieving students who are low-income or undocumented at top liberal arts colleges. Schuler will match donor gifts to Scripps up to $15 million for a total of $30 million in new scholarships over the next 10 years. Updates
