Building for the next generation of leaders

The ambitious renovation and expansion project for the Cox School’s facilities is making steady progress toward an anticipated completion date of May 2024. Through these spaces, the Cox School will inspire students, welcome visitors and promote new ways of approaching unique opportunities and thought-provoking challenges. Made possible by the visionary generosity of its donors, the project has raised over $114 million toward a $140 million goal.

Scholarships empower outstanding students

Scholarships empower Mustangs by helping Cox recruit and retain top-quality students who will excel in the business education environment.
