A state-assisted institution, Southeast Missouri State University receives only a portion of its funding from state revenue, tuition and auxiliaries. The remainder comes from private gifts by alumni and friends who believe in the good work of the University and support its mission of bringing students a high-quality education combined with programs that ensure students experience success in our global society.

Scholarships and financial aid that help make a Southeast education even more affordable for future leaders;
Faculty advancement, including continuing education funds, endowed faculty chairs and classroom resources;
Technology upgrades that bring the newest technology to students in all disciplines;
Facilities improvements that guarantee students and faculty will have the best environment in which to learn and grow; and
Unrestricted resources, crucial to maintaining Southeast Missouri State University’s reputation as a premiere academic institution.
