University Circle

The University Circle recognizes donors who support UB with annual charitable gifts of $1,000 or more received within the fiscal year (July 1 to June 30).  (Matching gifts count toward University Circle membership as well.) Graduates of the last decade with charitable gifts of $500 or more are welcomed as University Circle GOLD members.

University Circle members are part of an inner circle, a group of individuals who support a multitude of schools and programs across the university, ensuring the ongoing development of the university as a whole.  Membership continues through the duration of the fiscal year in which the gift is made. 

University Circle members receive a membership card that allows them a 20 percent discount at the University Bookstore (textbooks and software excluded), $2-$3 off single tickets and $5 - $8 off season tickets to UB’s Distinguished Speakers Series, and an invitation to UC Night at the Bookstore where they can enjoy an increased discount of 30 percent off mechandise.

If you direct your gifts to a specific school (see below), you will also be welcomed into the $1,000 level giving society of that school.
