A couple becomes members of the Illinois College Society with a joint gift of $1,000 or more within a fiscal year.

HOW LONG WILL I BE A MEMBER OF THE ILLINOIS COLLEGE SOCIETY?

The Illinois College Society recognizes gifts made within a fiscal year (June 1 to May 31). Therefore, membership is renewable on an annual basis.

WILL MY EMPLOYER'S MATCHING GIFT COUNT TOWARD MY MEMBERSHIP?

Yes. Because the College would not have access to your employer's matching gift without your own contribution, your employer's gift will count toward your annual Illinois College Society membership.

HOW IS THE ILLINOIS COLLEGE SOCIETY DIFFERENT THAN THE FOUNDERS' CIRCLE?

The Illinois College Society is the reimagining of the Founders' Circle. The Founders' Circle laid a strong foundation for the initiation of the Illinois College Society. While the Founders' Circle was a giving level, membership in the Illinois College Society includes several benefits including regular news and updates from College leadership, special invitations and reserved seating at College events, and keepsake Society accessories.
