Cost of attendance
Deferring: Students can defer the scholarship only for full-time religious or military service,
and documentation must be provided of the deferring event. Incoming students to UW
must complete Admissions' deferral form. Continuing students need to communicate directly with our office regarding the deferral
request.
QuickStart Programs: Undergraduate students enrolled in a QuickStart program will still be eligible to
receive a renewable scholarship based upon their residency.
Study Abroad: Renewing scholarships that are offered by UW can be used for an exchange study abroad
program where tuition is billed by UW. Those students will be enrolled in a UW 4001
level course placeholder. Scholarships that are in this category include:
- All Commitments and the individual scholarships used to fulfill them
- Western Undergraduate Exchange Award (WUE)
- Good Neighbor Award
- Trustees' Scholars Award
Students who elect to enroll in a non-exchange study abroad program (UW 4000 level)
where tuition is billed by the participating university will waive that semester's
eligibility for the renewing scholarship.
More information can be found on our Study Abroad page.
Wyoming Residency Status: If a student becomes a Wyoming resident during their first year at UW, their scholarship
will be adjusted to the equivalent resident award. If residency is approved after
the first year, the scholarship will be canceled.
