Whole Student Support

Founder’s College provides built-in, holistic support while you earn your degree so you can do—and feel—your best. From flexible block scheduling for classes to accommodate work and family obligations to accessing on-campus counseling and health services, our close-knit community atmosphere means you never have to figure out college on your own.

And since financial aid is expected to cover all or nearly all of your tuition and fees, you’ll have peace of mind knowing financial constraints will never hinder your academic pursuits. Your goals truly are in reach.

As you and your classmates navigate your college journey, you’ll gain entirely new and diverse experiences together. Orientation events will help introduce and connect you with other students, faculty, and staff. You’ll be quickly welcomed into the greater Butler family, with opportunities to participate in student organizations, attend campus events, and enjoy amenities like the fitness-focused Health and Recreation Complex. And a network of mentors is always available to answer questions, lend a helping hand, and make your college experience as fulfilling and rewarding as possible.

As a Founder’s College student, you’ll have a dedicated advisor to make sure you get the support you need to reach your academic, career, and personal goals. They’ll help take the mystery out of college and help you get easy access to all the tools Butler has to offer, from labs to libraries to internships. Since every student’s story is unique and there is no “one size fits all” approach to education, you can expect support that’s informed by your personal goals and circumstances.
