External Scholarships

What is an external scholarship?

External scholarships are major, nationally and internationally competitive scholarships that can help you attend graduate school at some of the best universities in the world. Awarded by organizations that are independent of specific universities, these scholarships often pay full tuition and other costs for students seeking graduate degrees. These scholarships are highly desirable; as such, they are very competitive. The Honors College serves all students at UW in helping them navigate the application process.

Should I apply?
