What is considered in the awarding process? How can I qualify for an admission scholarship?Īfter being admitted, new freshmen students are encouraged to complete the General Application in the Panther Scholarship Portal to be considered for merit-based scholarships. Awards range from $1,500 to $5,000, and some may be renewable.

In recognition of outstanding academic achievement, UWM awards merit-based admission scholarships to incoming first-year students each year through a competitive scholarship awarding process. The Black & Gold Scholarship is automatically awarded to new freshmen based on high school grade point average (GPA). The Chancellor’s Merit Scholarship is automatically awarded to new freshmen based on an unweighted final high school grade point average (GPA). Incoming students are assigned a school or college based on information they have listed in their application for admission. You can then complete and submit applications online. But the Panther Scholarship Portal uses your student data and your answers on the General Application to match you with open scholarship opportunities for which you are eligible. Others have specific requirements about academic achievements, intended majors or careers, or even which high school a student attended. Each scholarship offered by UWM has unique eligibility criteria.
