Our mission is to prepare out students for "Living and Making a Living." Approaching our 75th Anniversary, we are becoming a more youthful, exciting and interesting University.

    • Our campus is alive! For the 2nd year in a row we have a record number of new students!
    • Our business curriculum teaches the Arts of Thinking, Communication, and Leadership!
    • We have been awarded a $730,505 grant from the E.L. Wiegand Foundation to renovate our science lab and reignite the days of Professors DiRocco and Peressini.
    • Athletics continues to increase enrollment. It is our inaugural season of women's soccer!

We have invested over $500,000 in improvements, including new roofs, technology, and a new kitchen that our students love! We are removing the panels covering the windows. After all, our motto is In Thy Light, We See The Light.

You can make a tax-deductible contribution to the lives of students by calling 800-856-9562 or complete the on-line pledge form and send mail to us. It’s an excellent way to make a positive difference in the minds and lives of UGF students.

 

Project Jump Start

Project Jump Start is a critical part of the renewal of the University of Great Falls. It demonstrates that our University has aspirations to jump to a higher level – to realize our aspirations. Project Jump Start is a means to finance larger projects that are not included in the operating budget and an opportunity for UGF to develop credibility and apply contributions as well.

The goal for Project Jump Start is $300,000+ in a one year period. These monies are over and above our usual annual giving campaigns.

The categories Project Jump Start will address are:

Campus beautification and improvement including physical improvements, i.e. a fountain, building facades, and tree plantings to establish boundaries for the campus.
Technology improvement including making the entire academic facility wireless, promoting the use of laptops in the classrooms and library. Other technological advances will include innovative software programs, i.e. programs that simulate laboratory work.
Intellectual outreach and renewal in relationship with the community of Great Falls, i.e. dinners hosted by the UGF president in which faculty members offer formal intellectual presentations to selected members of the Great Falls community and/or providing financial resources and incentives for UGF faculty to undertake interdisciplinary courses.
