The annual endowment survey is out and Old Dominion has now increased its endowment to over $213,000,000.00 Million. We have outperformed 60% of the Universities in the US and in Canada with an annual growth rate of 18.4%. Using the 18.4 % growth rate ODU will reach approximately ½ Billion Dollars in just 5 years and approximately
1 Billion Dollars in 9 years. After 9 years our endowment will start to grow at a rate of $200,000,000 plus for future years and with compounding rates the numbers are dramatic.
2014 - $218,687,000 = Current Endowment
2015 - $253,005,000
2016 - $299,557,000
2017 - $354,675,000
2018 - $419,935,000
2019 - $497,203,000
2020 - $588,688,000
2021 - $697,004,000
2022 - $825,252,000
2023 - $977,098,000
Just as a reference if we have an annual return of 18.4% growth the endowment will double approximately every 5 years reaching
$2 Billion in 2028 and over
$4 Billion by 2032.
