Applications for departmental credit by examination are available in the Office of Registration and Records. Eligibility approval must be received from the Office of Registration and Records prior to taking the exam. Approval of the immediate supervisor or appointing authority is required. The appropriate forms must be secured in advance of the intended registration date and are issued from the Human Resources Department only. Refunds will not be made if the employee pays first then tries to arrange for a fee remission amount at a later date.
Most scholarships require the recipient to be enrolled full time.
Federal Pell Grants and Federal SEOG Grants are available to undergraduate students who have not completed the requirements for their first undergraduate degree. Classes for audit are not acceptable for any kind of financial aid. For details, ask a financial aid counselor. Aid applicants must make reasonable academic progress toward their degree to receive federal aid. To make reasonable academic progress, undergraduate recipients must have a minimum cumulative UW GPA of 2.0, have completed 67 percent of the credit hours attempted in the last academic year, and receive their first bachelor's degree by the time 180 credit hours have been attempted, or a second bachelor's by 220 hours.
