WOU Foundation Scholarships

 

Complete the WOU General Scholarship Application to be considered for over 100 different WOU scholarship programs, including scholarships from institutional funds and private donors through the WOU Foundation.  Selection criteria vary by scholarship, but generally include academic merit, extracurricular activities, personal essays, and overall quality of application.  Financial need, as determined by the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), is an additional factor for some scholarships.  

 

The application deadline has passed. Award decisions will be communicated to applicants by June 14, 2013.

Application deadline:

  • Application deadline is April 15, 2013 5:00pm
    Students are encouraged to begin the scholarship application prior to the deadline to allow time for processing and potential technical difficulties. The availability for last-minute technical assistance may not make it possible for students applying only days or hours before the deadline to submit a quality scholarship application.
