College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences
TRANSFORMING DREAMS AND ADVANCING POSSIBILITIES


Welcome to the College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences (CLASS), where intellectual curiosity meets transformative education. At CLASS, we advance research, education and public service in the humanities and social sciences to enrich our understanding of the human experience. We inspire students to think creatively, critically and collaboratively to build communities in Houston and beyond.

On Giving Day, your support makes higher education more accessible, helping students overcome financial challenges and empowering them to achieve their dreams.


CLASS SCHOLARSHIP FUND 


Financial hardship remains one of the biggest obstacles to student success and graduation. Scholarships make a critical difference, supporting students with outstanding academic performance while easing the financial burden of pursuing a degree.

Each year, the College of Liberal Arts and Social Sciences awards over 2,226 scholarships to its 11,300+ students, helping bridge the gap between potential and opportunity. Your support of the CLASS Scholarship Fund ensures that more students can access the education they need to thrive and become leaders in today’s global economy.


Make a gift today to the CLASS Scholarship Fund today to empower CLASS students and transform lives through education. Your contribution makes success possible!
