Next Steps to Summer Bridge

 What Happens Next?

After you have completed your University of Wyoming Summer Bridge application, you will receive an email indicating acceptance or denial into the program. Be aware that the following steps are required after you have received confirmation of acceptance:

1. Pay the $75 seat fee by July 1. This non-refundable fee is a confirmation of your attendance in the Summer Bridge. Note: This fee can be waived for eligible students. Contact the mhand4@uwyo.edu to see if you qualify.

2. Fill out and submit a 2024-2025 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form to UW Student Financial Aid. (This is in addition to the 2025-2026 application which will be applied for your fall coursework.) Once this form has been processed, Financial Aid representatives can calculate the final cost of the Summer Bridge for you. Our goal is to make this experience as inexpensive as possible for you and your family. Visit the FAFSA page on the Financial Aid website for information and instructions on completing a FAFSA form: https://www.uwyo.edu/sfa/applying-for-financial-aid/. If you have questions or concerns about financial aid or completing the FAFSA, please contact UW’s Office of Financial Aid at 307-766-2412.

3. You will need to complete a summer housing contract with Residence Life and Dining. This is a different application than the one you will fill out for your fall residence.
