The short version

University is a sponsor group of 3 issuers that PartnerFacts links to one sponsor (shared people, shared management entity, similar issuer names; automatic match from the filings), filing 4 Form D filings between Jan 2015 and Mar 2024.

What this means One team, 3 deal companies, about 9 years of track record in SEC filings. We link the companies because the same people or address appear on their forms — tap "Request a correction" if that is wrong.

Combined reported sold: $53.7M to 47 investors (latest filing per issuer). Industries as reported: Pooled Investment Fund (3). Issuers are based in UT (3).

What this means $53.7M raised across the group, about $1.14M per investor. Amounts come from each company's latest Form D; they are what the sponsor reported, not audited figures.

Principal people: Tom Stringham (3 issuers, executive officer and director), Peter Harris (2 issuers, executive officer and director), University Growth Fund Management, LLC (2 issuers, executive officer and director, entity), UGF I GP (1 issuer, director, entity), UGF II GP, LLC (1 issuer, director, entity) and 1 more.

What this means The person on the most companies is usually the one running the show; their page lists every deal.

Activity: 0 new offerings in the last 12 months; latest filing Mar 28, 2024.

What this means No new raise filed in the past year.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CT, DE, FINRA, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY), property records (NYC, FL, IL and TX counties) — 2 court cases matching the name, 2 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 4 records came back. Each one is listed below with a link to the original document and a line saying why it matched. A name match is not proof it is the same person or company — read the why line and the document. Being sued or named in a release is an accusation, not a finding.

We compared 4 public filings for University and found 8 differences: University includes 2 deals that stopped filing before reaching their target; 17 other issuers file from the same address; and more below.

What this means These are differences between the sponsor's own SEC filings — both values, dates and sources are listed in Key records, section 4. Most have ordinary explanations; ask the sponsor.

4. Differences between public sources

No comparisons published

What is compared

No public statement by this sponsor group has been collected yet, so there is nothing to compare. Sources compared: the sponsor's own website (known from the issuer's own filings — Form C issuer website, EDGAR company profile — an approved profile claim or Form ADV Item 1.I of its matched adviser) · SEC Form D · SEC Form ADV (IAPD) · Internet Archive · No website is on file for this sponsor group yet.

8 differences found between the filings for University (compared 4 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Jan 14, 2015 – Mar 28, 2024

University includes 2 deals that stopped filing before reaching their target

University Small Business Credit Fund I, L.P. (last filing Mar 28, 2024; $0 sold of $30,000,000); University Growth Fund I, L.P. (last filing Jan 14, 2015; $3,500,000 sold of $50,000,000). Each has no filing in more than two years and reported under half its target sold.

What this means An issuer whose last filing is more than two years old and reported under half its target sold. The raise may have closed early or quietly stopped. Ask what happened to each.

Sources
Note · Jan 14, 2015 – Mar 28, 2024

17 other issuers file from the same address — 3 member issuers (University Growth Fund I, L.P.; University Growth Fund II, L.P.; University Small Business Credit Fund I, L.P.)

The address on file, 299 South Main Street, Suite 310, Salt Lake City, UT, is used by 20 issuers in our index across 5 sponsor groups; 17 are outside this group. It is on our registered-agent / shared-office list (20 issuers in 13 unrelated clusters).

What this means Many unrelated companies file from this address. Often a registered agent or a fund administrator; sometimes a shared office. Ask where the team actually works.

Sources
Note · May 1, 2020 – Dec 17, 2021

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — University Growth Fund II, L.P. (latest filing Dec 17, 2021)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Dec 17, 2021 (first sale May 1, 2020). It reports $50,200,000 sold of an indefinite amount offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

Sources
Note · Dec 31, 2014 – Jan 14, 2015

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — University Growth Fund I, L.P. (latest filing Jan 14, 2015)

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

Sources
Note · Jan 14, 2015 – Mar 28, 2024

University Growth Fund Management, LLC is written 2 different ways on the filings

listed as "University Growth Fund Management" on the Jan 14, 2015 filing, and "University Growth Fund Management, LLC" on the Mar 28, 2024 filing.

What this means Same person, written differently — a middle name or suffix left off, or spelled another way. It is normal, but check that the full legal name matches your subscription documents.

Note · Mar 28, 2024

Address on file is a registered agent / shared office — University Small Business Credit Fund I, L.P.

The latest filing lists 299 South Main Street, Suite 358, Salt Lake City, UT. That address is used by 20 issuers in our index (20 issuers in 13 unrelated clusters).

What this means Many small companies use a registered agent's address — it is legal and common. It means the Form D address is not where the team works. Ask where the business operates and who runs it day to day.

What is compared

What is compared: every Form D and D/A we hold for this subject, side by side — filing dates vs. first-sale dates (the 15-day rule), amendment timing on open offerings (the yearly-amendment expectation), amounts sold, investor counts, offering amounts and minimums across amendments, industry and size bands, addresses, how each person's name and role is written, paid sellers' CRD numbers, and (for groups) where the member companies were formed and sit. Everything is as filed by the issuer; the SEC does not check it. Differences are common and usually have ordinary explanations — we show both values, the dates, and the source so you can ask. As of Oct 24, 2026.
