Prospective students seeking scholarships should also send an application for admission, the nonrefundable application fee, and a copy of their current high school or college transcript to the UW Admissions Office by March 1. Students who have attended another college must have that college submit an academic transcript to the UW Admissions Office as well as a financial aid transcript to the UW financial aid office. Allow four weeks for processing. Final responsibility for ensuring that all required documents are received in a timely manner rests with the applicant. Aid recipients must make reasonable academic progress toward their degree to receive federal aid.
Academic progress is checked once each year following the end of the spring semester.
Firsttime borrowers of guaranteed student loans at UW must participate in entrance loan counseling. All student loan borrowers must participate in an exit loan interview prior to leaving college. Students enrolled in a domestic or international exchange program or a study abroad program approved by UW for academic credit are eligible to apply for federal student financial assistance. Students granted a Federal Work-Study allocation have the opportunity to perform community services to earn their allocation. Information describing available aid, award criteria, rights and responsibilities of aid recipients, costs of attendance or refund and repayment policies and schedules is available by writing to the Office of Student Financial Aid, P.O. Box 3335, University of Wyoming, Laramie, WY 820713335.
