Welcome to the UWL Alumni & Friends Foundation Scholarship website! The scholarships listed below are offered through the UWL Alumni & Friends Foundation. Click “Show Filters” to display filter options such as college or major. Use the “Search” box to find scholarships by keyword or name. Click the scholarship name to learn more about the opportunity.

Sign in and complete your General Application. You may also be prompted to complete a Conditional Application based on your area of study. Once you complete these applications, you will be recommended open scholarship opportunities that you may be qualified to apply for based on your student record. Some scholarships are awarded solely based on the General or Conditional Application. These awards list “No Action Needed” in the action column. You will automatically be considered for these awards if you’ve submitted the required General or Conditional Application, and you meet the award requirements. Qualifying for any scholarship does not guarantee you will receive the scholarship.

Due to NCAA Div. III regulations, athletics cannot be considered in the awarding of scholarships. Commenting on athletic involvement on scholarship applications or references from coaches is prohibited.

Due to FERPA regulations, reviewers have limited access to your information. To also help keep reviews more anonymous and in line with FERPA regulations, we ask that you please refrain from stating your name in your essay questions.
