Announcing CTB's 2025-2026 Design Grant Cohort
Come to Believe is pleased to announce the recipients of this year’s design grant cohort:
Montclair State University in Montclair, NJ
St. John Fisher University in Rochester, NY
The University of the Incarnate Word in San Antonio, TX
Congratulations to CTB’s 2025-2026 design grant cohort!
What does it mean to receive a CTB design grant? A design grant provides up to $40,000 in funding for a university to explore our two-year college model in depth and begin to consider whether it has the bandwidth to successfully replicate and sustain the model on its campus. After that, CTB customizes our services for participating institutions as they segue from exploring to planning a two-year college on their campuses, pending the approval of their board of trustees.
CTB is pleased to invest in and support this promising set of leaders who are interested in breaking through the status quo and exploring a better normal for higher education in the form of CTB’s two-year college model.
The design grant program is only made possible by CTB’s generous supporters. This year, CTB is particularly grateful for the sponsor of this year's cohort, the Carnegie Corporation of New York.
