Resident Student Scholarships


This information is for the Fall 2026/Spring 2027 academic year. Unless otherwise noted, awards listed are for the academic year and not by semester.


The University of Wyoming is proud to offer a variety of opportunities for eligible Wyoming resident new first-time students (non-transfer). All opportunities are based on the student's academic achievements at the time of admission to UW. New first-time resident students will be considered for the WY Transfer Commitment.

Students must be degree-seeking through UW's Laramie or Casper campuses. UW Online students are not eligible for these scholarships. (This is effective for fall 2025 new admits; current recipients and/or recipients currently deferring will be permitted to complete their remaining terms of use in accordance with the published Terms & Conditions.)
