GEAR UP Wyoming Scholarships

GEAR UP Wyoming is involved with four major types of scholarships.

Institutional Scholarships
These scholarships are awarded to GEAR UP Wyoming students by the partner institution where the student attends college. Criteria is determined by the host institution. Last year approximately $450,000 was awarded to GEAR UP students from the partner institutions. 

Hathaway Scholarships
The Hathaway Scholarship program provides merit- and need-based awards to eligible students. GEAR UP works with students to prepare and encourage them to meet the criteria set by the Hathaway program. 

GEAR UP Wyoming Federal Scholarships
Federal dollars are placed into a trust fund to provide scholarships for GEAR UP Wyoming students to attend college. The Federal Scholarship criteria include focused requirements that demonstrate regular participation in the project. Funds will be available to students currently participating in the program, but not entering college until after the grant has ended. 

Daniels Fund
Gear Up Wyoming is a Referral Agency for the Daniels Scholarship, a prestigious scholarship program for students who are "diamonds in the rough." Students must be nominated by a participating Referral Agency and meet certain criteria. For more information, visit the Daniels Fund website at http://www.danielsfund.org/
