Why are scholarships so important?

• 92% of MIAD students receive financial support through scholarships and other forms of aid.
• 80% of MIAD graduates choose to live and work in Wisconsin, contributing a vital brain gain to the state that shapes its economic and creative future.
• 90% of MIAD graduates are employed within their first year of graduation and report employment satisfaction.
• Employment in many creative industries is growing faster than the labor force and makes up 30% of the workforce by some estimates.

For these reasons and more, an investment in MIAD students is an investment in our community, our economy and our future.
