Wisconsin Grant - Tribal

The Wisconsin Grant - Tribal program is a state-funded financial aid initiative administered by the Wisconsin Higher Educational Aids Board. This grant is designed specifically for students who meet tribal college enrollment criteria within the state. To determine eligibility and calculate the award amount, the program utilizes the applicant's Student Aid Index, which is derived from the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. The state uses a specific formula subtracting the Student Aid Index from a set base amount and applying a percentage to establish the final funding amount. Eligible students can receive up to $2,450 to help cover their educational expenses. Because funding relies on the federal methodology, students must complete the FAFSA to be considered for this program.
