The defining feature of an endowed scholarship is that\u00a0 the principal amount (the endowment) is invested at a 5% rate, and only the income or interest generated from that investment is used to fund scholarship awards. This ensures the scholarship&#8217;s long-term sustainability, as the principal remains intact and continues to support future students.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Endowed scholarships at Nicholls are typically established with specific eligibility criteria, such as academic achievement, financial need, or a connection to a particular field of study or demographic group. The fund can also be named in honor of the donor or another individual of significance, such as a former professor or alumnus.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">An endowed scholarship provides a lasting financial resource that offers consistent support to students. Its primary benefit is its ability to support multiple generations of students, ensuring long-term stability and

Please seek the advice of competent counsel before making any important decisions.<\/p><h3>Planned Giving<\/h3><p>Life-income funds and other planned gifts are extraordinary ways for alumni or friends of Nicholls to make substantial gifts while benefiting from the income during their lifetime. These irrevocable gifts provide favorable tax deductions and often reduce capital gains taxes on appreciated securities. For information about planned giving, please call the Office of Development at 985.448.4009.<\/p><h3>Life Insurance<\/h3><p>A gift of life insurance may be made to benefit the university as an outright or planned gift. As with other forms of planned giving, the gift of a life insurance policy can offer certain tax advantages. An existing policy may be transferred, or a new policy may be purchased specifically as a means of gifting to Nicholls through the Nicholls State University Foundation. (Please note that that this applies to whole life policies only.)<\/p><p>Many of us purchase life insurance to ensure the financial stability of our families in the event of an untimely death. If your circumstances have changed, and you have a life insurance policy you may no longer need, you might consider naming the Nicholls Foundation as beneficiary. The Office of Development can assist with proper beneficiary designation.<\/p><h3>Bequests<\/h3><p>A gift by bequest through a will or trust is another way to leave a legacy at Nicholls State University. Bequests allow donors full use of their capital during their lifetimes, and such gifts are very important to the university to help build endowments for scholarships and other needs.<\/p><p>Bequests can take one of several forms, including a bequest to leave a specific amount, a fixed percentage or as a remainder bequest after all other bequests have been satisfied. You can also bequeath real property, such as your home or other real estate, and tangible personal property, such as rare books, artwork and other collectibles. If you have already prepared your will or trust, your attorney can help you modify it by adding a codicil to include a gift to the Nicholls State University Foundation.<\/p><p>Please note that all bequests to benefit the university should list the Nicholls State University Foundation Inc. as the beneficiary. For sample bequest language, contact the Office of Development.<\/p><h3>Charitable Annuities and Trusts<\/h3><p>There are other forms of planned giving that offer benefits to the donor and\/or a designated beneficiary while providing a donation to the university.<\/p><ul><li>A <strong>charitable gift annuity<\/strong> can be created by transferring cash or securities valued at $10,000 or more to the Nicholls Foundation, and in return, the donor receives guaranteed fixed payments for life of the donor and\/or a designated beneficiary.<\/li><\/ul><ul><li>There are other similar vehicles available to you to benefit Nicholls through the Nicholls State University Foundation. Your tax adviser or estate planning attorney can assist you in determining which instrument best meets your needs while also benefiting Nicholls.<\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-bf52d9e elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"bf52d9e\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5601a87\" data-id=\"5601a87\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8e2bc76 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"8e2bc76\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-c82b52d elementor-hidden-desktop elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-mobile elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"c82b52d\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7793fce\" data-id=\"7793fce\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-38937e8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"38937e8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">ENDOWMENTS<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-90bb82f elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"90bb82f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Naming Opportunities<\/h3><p>There are numerous naming opportunities, such as classrooms, conference rooms, academic centers and other areas.

Faculty who are on the cutting edge of their respective disciplines help insure that students are receiving the finest instruction possible. For information about endowing a chair or professorship, contact the Office of Development at 985.448.4009.<\/p><h3>Endowed Scholarships<\/h3><p>Scholarships enable Nicholls to attract the best and brightest students. For TOPS-eligible students, it provides additional financial assistance beyond basic tuition and other TOPS stipends. Endowed scholarships provide an annual benefit for students since only the interest earned is used to fund the scholarship. For information about endowing a scholarship, contact the Office of Development at
