2025 Endowment Study Affinity Groups Webinar Series: Empowering Small Institutions Through NCSE Participation

Much media and other attention is paid to endowments and foundations that have more than $1 billion in assets. However, more than half the institutions that participated in the 2024 NACUBO-Commonfund Study of Endowments (NCSE) have assets under $250 million, and one quarter have funds of $100 million or less. Endowed funds at smaller institutions contribute to financial aid, research, and other important functions on campus. NACUBO and Commonfund’s 2025 Endowment Study Webinar Series explores findings from the NCSE and shares valuable insights and benchmarking data that focus on the unique roles and challenges facing these institutions as they leverage endowment funds to support their mission and students.
