Build the Future We Need

Rising to Meet the Moment

From a college housed in an elementary school with 17 students to now—a top-tier, nationally recognized research university and the largest public research university in the Commonwealth of Virginia—George Mason University has always risen to meet the moment. Today, our world stands at a crossroads, facing challenges unlike any time in our history. As always, George Mason is ready to lead, meeting that grand challenge with grand solutions.

Mason Now: Power the Possible

The first $1B comprehensive campaign in our history.

Mason Now: Power the Possible is rooted in the belief that the future is something we create, not something that happens to us. When all voices are invited to shape what’s next, the future is closer than we think, and what’s possible is transformed into what is.
