Alumni Giving
As a small, world-renowned African University there is ample evidence to support our claim that Rhodes is a place "Where leaders learn." For over 106 years we have been educating individuals who have gone on to make significant contributions to the development of society and the production of new knowledge. Factors that support our endeavors include:
- One of the best academic staff to student ratios:
- Amongst the best undergraduate pass and graduation rates in South Africa and an outstanding postgraduate success rate:
- Amongst the best per capita research outputs
- Well established and highly regarded areas of academic excellence:
- An unmatched campus experience where opportunities abound to become immersed in the world of knowledge generation and to develop real leadership skills.
Right now, Rhodes is the university of choice for many of the brightest and best minds from here and abroad. But clearly, there is an urgent need to expand and improve facilities if Rhodes is to continue 'sustaining excellence'.
Your contribution will help enhance facilities, support research activities and provide opportunities for less fortunated young people, eager to follow in your footsteps. It doesn't matter how large a contribution you are able to make. What is important is that you embrace the concept of partnership with Rhodes, and continue to work together with your fellow alumni, staff and other well-wishes to ensure Rhodes remains and institution of which we can all be proud of.
