Outreach and Continuing Education

This is for Now. This is for Ever. This is for Outreach and Continuing Education.

One mission of the Division of Outreach and Continuing Education is to serve UM students by providing them with high-quality, unique, and tailored learning experiences. Today, you can further expand these opportunities for our student body and invest in programs that make the educational journey a special and powerful one. 

Experiential learning with UM faculty throughout the country or internships that will launch a student’s career are added benefits of a degree at UM, and we are striving to make them available to all. Your gift will increase access and allow a wider variety of Ole Miss students to participate in these programs. Making these exceptional opportunities available for our students requires tremendous resources. 

Because these programs are additional opportunities beyond the traditional campus framework, federal and state aid to support student participation is limited. Strong private support from alumni and friends is crucial to the continued growth of these programs and the ability to provide opportunities for all UM students to participate.

We want our graduates to be leaders, innovators, and agents of change. Experiential learning through expanded academic opportunities and high-quality internships is an integral part of that journey.

Your gift goes further on Giving Day! Several members of the Ole Miss Family are challenging you to make a difference in the lives of students. Maximize your impact by answering these challenges and helping us unlock critical resources. Your gift - no matter the size - makes a difference. 

It’s easy to give! Ole Miss Giving Day accepts Apple Pay, Venmo, PayPal, and all major credit cards.
