Wisconsin Grant - UW

The Wisconsin Grant - UW is a state-funded financial aid program administered by the Wisconsin Higher Educational Aids Board. This grant is specifically designed for undergraduate students who are enrolled at any of the University of Wisconsin System campuses. To determine eligibility and calculate the student's financial need, the program relies on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, which calculates the Student Aid Index used in the state's grant formula.

The program provides funding to help cover the cost of attending a state university. Eligible students can receive up to $3,700 through the standard grant formula. Additionally, a Tier 2 award of $1,000 is available for students with a higher Student Aid Index, though these specific tier awards are subject to funding availability and are only implemented if state funds permit. To apply, students must submit their federal student aid application. For the most current application deadlines and submission dates, applicants should consult the official program page.
