Hathaway Scholarships

Calculating Hathaway Need Awards

Students qualifying for the merit portion of Hathaway Scholarships who have completed and supplied the results of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), may qualify for additional need-based Hathaway Scholarship monies. “Unmet need” is calculated in the following way:

UW Cost of Attendance
Less: Student Aid Index (SAI)*, as determined by FAFSA
Less: Hathaway Scholarship merit award per year
Less: Grants and Scholarships awarded to student
Less: $2,000 Hathaway Scholarship required student commitment
= Unmet Need

*Negative SAIs will be considered zero (0) for the purposes of this need calculation

Qualifying students will receive a percentage of this unmet need based on their eligible scholarship level.
