MESSAGE FROM THE INTERIM DEAN Advancing McIntire's Legacy, Together
The University of Virginia’s Honor the Future campaign and the McIntire School’s Inspire the Next Century campaign set forth ambitious goals designed to drive transformational change. With the extraordinary support of our donor community of alumni, parents, and friends, McIntire exceeded its $250 million goal 17 months ahead of schedule, raising over $272 million, with just under $80 million in additional University matching funds.
This significant milestone marks the successful culmination of a strategic, multiyear effort to sustain McIntire’s standing as a global leader in business education, with investments across our top-ranked B.S. in Commerce Program, graduate degrees, and pan-University minors. Philanthropic support bolstered School priorities, including the McIntire Expansion Project, the Centennial Fund for Faculty Excellence, Student Success and Scholarships, and the ever-critical unrestricted McIntire Annual Fund.
As we conclude this campaign, we are honored to recognize the generosity of our 2024-2025 donors in this year’s Investors’ Report. During the past fiscal year—from July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025—more than 3,100 alumni, parents, and friends came together to contribute $22 million to the McIntire School. Notably, we exceeded our goal of $4.4 million for the McIntire Annual Fund, our most successful year to date.
The stories below showcase the remarkable progress made possible by the dedication of our donor community. Thank you for your extraordinary commitment to McIntire’s mission and the future of the School.
