The organization which has awarded your scholarship should provide you with information about how the check will be distributed.
Different methods require different responses.
If the check is made payable to the University of Wisconsin, or jointly to yourself and the University, you should bring the check to the Bursar's Office. We will ask you to endorse the check, and then we will apply that amount to your student account. We will verify any eligibility requirements which the source has defined and notify the Office of Student Financial Services that you received this check. Excess funds from your student account will be sent to your 'mailing' address within a week after the credit balance is created. If the check is sent directly to the Bursar's Office and it is payable to the University of Wisconsin, we will apply the check directly onto your student account according to the organization's requirements.
