Not all scholarships are awarded every year.
Apply-To scholarships (that have a few qualifying questions) open in WyoScholarships add full site every year on November 15th and close at midnight, March 15th.
Auto-Match scholarships begin to show WyoScholarships in early February when the auto-match period begins.
All scholarship opportunities are only available through the WyoScholarships program through the office of Scholarship and Financial Aid.
All UWAA scholarships assist in fulfilling the student’s University Commitment.
University Commitments are separate from the Hathaway Scholarship.
Students receiving a Trustees’ Scholars Award do not qualify for UWAA Scholarships.
The UWAA coordinates with the Office of Financial Aid to verify the qualifying questions and Financial Aid completes the awarding process based on the UW commitment for the student. You will only be able to apply for scholarships once you have been accepted to attend the University of Wyoming and will need your WyoWeb username and password to apply.
Apply-To is based on the student’s general application in WyoScholarships after acceptance
to UW and a few qualifying questions. Apply-To scholarships are based on the annual
approval process and available funds. Being eligible does not guarantee being selected
for a particular scholarship.
