The Transformational Partnerships Fund ("TPF") is a confidential, philanthropic initiative to help Institutions of Higher Education ("IHEs") explore partnerships that are potentially transformational for the students they serve.  This form is intended to collect information that will make our first conversation more productive. You can see a full list of questions here.

If you are interested in the possibility of a grant please carefully review our eligibility criteria before completing the form. In particular, please note that grant inquiries must be completed by two institutions together. We do not make grants to single institutions or to support partnership discussions that have finished the exploratory phase.

If you are applying with respect to a particular situation all the participating institutions should be aware of the application and have agreed on the content. 

Please feel free to reach out to us at any time on inquiry@higheredpartnerships.org or call (844) 869-7842 Ext. 1 if you'd like to discuss your situation directly before spending time on this form.

Please note for completing the application:
  • All attachments uploaded cannot collectively exceed 25MB. 
  • If you plan to finish the application in a separate session, please ensure you select "Save my progress and resume later" at the top of the page - leaving the application open unsaved for 10+ minutes will time-out your session and likely lose your progress.
  • After you press 'Submit', you will be asked to review your completed inquiry. We will not receive a notification for your submission until you click 'Confirm'. While we can view drafts as they are populated, we will not be notified of your inquiry until you have confirmed your finalized submission.
