A century of scholarly service to Polonia.

Founded in 1925 by a group of Polish-American college graduates, the Polish University Club of New Jersey was formally incorporated in the State of New Jersey in 1933 as a 501(c)(3) organization devoted to the advancement of higher education.

Educational pursuit is the driving force behind the organization. Funds for scholarships have been raised through fundraisers, donations, and endowments — a tradition of generosity that has spanned three generations.

To date, 1,000 scholarships have been awarded to deserving Polish-American students who exemplify leadership, academic rigor, and financial need.
