College of Engineering and Applied Science

Scholarships for High Achievers

The College of Engineering and Applied Science awards annual scholarships separately from those awarded by the UW Office of Admissions and Office of Student Financial Aid. Engineering scholarships are competitive and based on academic merit. Our scholarships are paid separately (in addition to) those awarded by the University.   Neither the UW Office of Student Financial Aid nor the College of Engineering and Applied Science requires a separate application for most scholarships. Some university-level scholarships do require additional applications and/or may have alternate application deadlines. More Information on Scholarships for High Achievers. All students admitted to the University of Wyoming by Dec. 1 are considered automatically for scholarships for the next academic year.
