Scholarships
The university offers a number of scholarships for both incoming freshmen and continuing undergraduates. These scholarships are generally offered in recognition of academic merit and artistic talent. For incoming freshmen, a scholarship is usually awarded based on outstanding high school performance. There is a uni-form deadline of February 1 for incoming freshman to apply for scholarships. For returning students, scholarships are usually awarded based on academic record and/or outstanding ability in a particular field, generally without regard to financial need. Most of the schools/colleges and some individual departments within the university award scholarships to students studying within their programs. For more information on available scholarships, go to [email protected]–Madison (scholarships.wisc.edu).
If you would like information about other possible scholar-ships, there are a number of websites that offer free scholarship information. Two of the best are www.fastweb.com and www.finaid.org. Other sources for non-university scholarships include high school guidance counselors, civic or church groups, labor unions, PTAs, or parents’ employers.
