Scholar/Grant Programs for Newly Admitted Out-of-State Residents
The University of Wisconsin-Parkside offers several renewable financial aid programs for non-residents who are new admits or transfers. The awards may cover up to the full out-of-state portion of tuition charges. Awards are given on a first-come, first-served basis. Funding is limited.
We strongly recommend students to apply early for admission. The earlier a student applies for admission, the greater the chance for award availability.
Complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to ensure you receive the maximum financial aid consideration. Therefore, students should complete a FAFSA as soon as possible after January 1 to enhance their chances for the maximum amount of financial aid available.
Important: Available only to non-residents admitted as degree-seeking for first undergraduate or graduate degree.
