Since its inception, this tournament has raised more than $200,000 in support of scholarships that transform and empower lives through education. 

Golf Classic logoThese funds are essential to make our students workforce ready when they graduate – and the numbers support this: for the sixth consecutive year, Albertus graduates outpaced the national average when it comes to finding jobs or continuing their education within six months after earning their bachelor’s degree. The graduating Class of 2021 alumni achieved a 97-percent success rate versus the most recent 82-percent national comparison rate, according to the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) Destination Survey results. Each of the College’s last six graduating classes have achieved at least a 95-percent success rate in the important early career success and return on investment metric.

“This tournament demonstrates our on-going dedication to student success in the classroom and the community. Your support will help us maintain our commitment to our students and instill in them the capacity to lead lives of distinction and service,” said Vice President of Advancement Mary Young ’91.
