What is the Pay it Forward Initiative?

The purpose of the Pay it Forward Scholarship Initiative is designed to mobilize Eastern's alumni and current students, who have enjoyed and benefited from their studies at Eastern University, to refer a friend, colleague, family member, or church member to one of Eastern's fantastic Graduate, Seminary, and Adult Undergraduate Programs. By referring that student, Eastern will also give the referred student a $1,000 scholarship for being referred by you! Essentially, you will be Paying It Forward. Eastern University is dedicated and passionate about providing an education with a Christian foundation to students around the globe. The Pay It Forward Initiative is a new scholarship program benefiting graduate, seminary, and adult undergraduate students.
