New Funds Secured 2019

“New funds secured” provides a comprehensive measure of the impact and effectiveness of fund-raising efforts in a given year, capturing the value of new cash gifts, gifts of securities, gifts of real property, and other gifts in-kind as well as the total value of new gift commitments and pledges secured of up to five years duration. The measure excludes some philanthropic income received in the reporting year, notably payments on pledges secured in prior years.

Change in New Funds Secured (2019-2018)

New funds secured from 2018 was subtracted from 2019 for each institution, and the difference was divided by the 2018 total to get a percent change. A positive number indicates that New funds Secured increased from 2018 to 2019 and a negative number shows the opposite.

New Funds Secured per Student FTE 2019
