Why Now?

Higher education is at a crossroads. Too many institutions prepare students for yesterday’s world, relying on systems that can’t keep pace with today’s challenges. Belmont is different.

We embrace a future-positive mindset, preparing students not for 1995 but for 2030, 2040 and beyond. With character, creativity and innovation at the center of our mission, we unlock new ideas, equip courageous leaders and fuel solutions to the world’s most urgent needs.

This is a generational moment — where clarity, compassion and bold vision are required. Belmont is uniquely positioned: a Christ-centered university in the heart of Nashville, expanding in reach and impact, and relentlessly focused on transformation.

Through the Hope Transforms campaign, we are igniting a movement of changemakers whose work is powered by faith, imagination and purpose.

Forming Leaders of Character

Scholarships, Faculty Endowments, Belmont Formation Collaborative

At Belmont, we do more than educate — we form leaders of character. Scholarships open doors for students from all backgrounds. Endowed faculty chairs attract and retain world-class mentors. The Belmont Formation Collaborative strengthens whole-person formation across campus. Together, these initiatives ensure Belmont graduates lead with wisdom, compassion and integrity.

Cultivating Transformational Creativity

Creativity has the power to shape industries and inspire communities. From Curb College’s expansion on Music Row to the Powerhouse collaboration hub and new Arts Corridor facilities, Belmont is building spaces where imagination and industry collide. Here, students gain the skills and confidence to transform culture through storytelling, performance, and design.
