McDonogh was founded in 1873 as a farm school for poor boys, and all students received full financial support for nearly half a century. In 1922, the inclusion of full-pay students became essential for the School's sustainability. Despite this shift, the ethos of scholarship persisted, upheld by the generosity of donors—many of whom once benefited from scholarships themselves.
Today, the spirit of need-based scholarships remains a cornerstone of McDonogh School's mission. Evolving over the decades and officially named the Scholarship Program in the 1990s, the principle of 'giving something more than we take' remains deeply ingrained in our institutional culture.
Thanks to the unwavering support of numerous benefactors, countless deserving students have been afforded the opportunity to attend McDonogh. These students, whose lives have been positively transformed through scholarship funding, contribute significantly to the vibrancy of our diverse and talented community.
In our commitment to expanding access to a McDonogh education through need-based scholarships, The Legacy Campaign prioritizes the growth of the endowment. By doing so, we aim to ensure that McDonogh's profound impact on the lives of students continues for generations to come.
McDonogh provides $6.4M+ per year in financial aid and scholarship. An endowment of $160M will fund this initiative in perpetuity.
