Cal Poly's endowment more than tripled during its Centennial Campaign from $43.1 million to $140.1 million. Growth is attributed to gifts and prudent stewardship. However, since 2007, the university's endowment has fluctuated dramatically, going from $181.7 million in 2007[61] to $130.9 million in 2009,[62] before rebounding to $227.7 million in 2019, the 301st largest of 785 colleges and universities in the United States and Canada.[3]
