Class of 2024 Completes Graduation Pledge Campaign

Class of 2024 Class Agents

The Class of 2024 successfully concluded its graduation gift pledge campaign, 24K Magic, with 197 members of the class making a pledge, for a 68% participation rate.

Led by co-chairs Emma Danziger and Kennedy Williams, 29 class agent volunteers reached out to every classmate to ask for a pledge to make a gift for the four years leading to their fifth reunion.

The Class of 1996 established the graduation gift pledge campaign to encourage support from the Law School’s newest alumni.

Their legacy will be seen as a gift of gratitude to the thousands of alumni who financially support the Law School each year, and, as a challenge to students who follow.

FAQs

What is the Class of 2024 Pledge Campaign?

The Class of 2024 Pledge Campaign is the class’s promise of future financial support to the Law School, emphasizing collective participation. Class members are asked to make a four-year pledge that can support any fund at UVA Law or the unrestricted (“current use”) fund. The first payment is not due until the following annual giving campaign. The school’s campaigns run from July 1 – June 30.

Why Does UVA Law need the money?

  • The Law School receives no financial support from the Commonwealth of Virginia. 
  • Last year, alumni giving, i.e., annual gifts and endowment income, provided the Law School with almost one-third of its enterprise operating budget. 
  • Alumni donations provide funding for student financial aid and loan forgiveness; professorships and summer research support; library needs; student publications and organizations; and other priorities as they develop.

Isn't my tuition enough?

Tuition and fees are significantly less than the Law School’s expenditure per student. While the percentage varies slightly from year to year, tuition covers approximately two-thirds of the cost of attendance.
