UW-Platteville offers a wide range of scholarships made possible through the generosity of alumni, friends, and university supporters who believe in the value of a UW-Platteville education.

Scholarships recognize students in many ways, including academic achievement, leadership, service, campus and community involvement, potential contributions, and financial need.

Who Can Apply?

• Admitted and enrolled full-time UW-Platteville degree-seeking students taking classes. Full-time status requires enrollment in a minimum of 12 credit hours per semester.
• Re-entry students eligible to enroll for an upcoming term at the main campus of UW-Platteville.

How to Get Started
Step 1: Sign In
Admitted and current students can apply using their UW-Platteville Net ID information to access the scholarship application. To complete your application, Sign in by clicking the orange button at the top right.

Step 2: Complete Your General Application

Submit the General Application and the appropriate campus application, when requested. Your completed applications and student record information will help determine which scholarship opportunities you qualify for.

Step 3: Explore Your Scholarship Opportunities

Students are considered for scholarships in two ways:

• Auto-Match Scholarships: No additional application is required beyond the applicable campus application. If you meet the scholarship qualifications, your application is automatically forwarded to the committee responsible for awarding the scholarship. These opportunities will not appear in your Recommended Opportunities list.
• Apply-to Scholarships: Some scholarships require additional information, such as an essay or reference. Once you have submitted the applicable campus application, these opportunities will appear under Recommended Opportunities. Look for the Apply button in the Actions column and submit any additional requested materials to be considered.

Remember: Meeting eligibility requirements or submitting an application does not guarantee a scholarship award.
Tip: Save or update your application after entering each essay response to help prevent losing your work if the system times out.
Qualifying and/or applying does not guarantee that you will be offered a scholarship.

How to Search for Scholarships
You can explore scholarships in two ways:

• Browse All Opportunities: Select Ours under the Opportunities menu to view available scholarships.
