Morehouse College: $141.6M Revenue, $141.1M Expenses

Morehouse College pulls a D on the efficiency rubric. The composite of 47/100 reflects below-median performance on the bundle of factors — typically driven by thin operating reserves, volatile revenue, or outsized officer compensation relative to organizational size.

Annual revenue at Morehouse College runs $141.6M (2023), placing it among the larger U.S. nonprofits in the IRS Form 990 dataset. Reserves are the limiting factor: Morehouse College carries relatively few months of operating expenses on its balance sheet, which can leave an organization exposed if a major funding source pauses.

Five-year revenue has grown modestly. Morehouse College is not expanding rapidly but is not shrinking either; the trajectory is consistent with stable donor and grant relationships. Officer compensation runs notably high relative to organizational size: $11.9M against $141.6M in revenue. This is one of the factors driving the efficiency grade down on the rubric. In the Education category, Morehouse College sits alongside universities, K-12 systems, scholarship funds, and education-research organizations. Education-sector nonprofits often hold large endowments, which affects how the reserves-and-revenue figures should be read.
