Foundation Scholarships

Rounds, Erle & Alice Porter

Candidates must rank in the top 25% of their graduating class and have a minimum of a 25 composite on the ACT (or comparable SAT). Or, if they are from an unranked class, students will need to have their counselor verify rank in the top 25% and have the required ACT/SAT score. Descendants of Erle and Alice Porter Rounds will be given fair consideration for the scholarship and are encouraged to contact the Office of Admissions. Descendants must self-identify to the Office of Admissions by February 1.

The general incoming freshmen scholarship application is available online at: www.uwec.edu/admissions/paying.htm. Admitted, eligible candidates are encouraged to apply. If you feel you meet the application requirements and cannot access the online application, please contact the Admissions Office at (715)836-5415.

The Admissions Office will coordinate the selection of recipients.

Screening of candidates will begin in December and continue through spring. Final selections will be made no later than April 30 (or until recipients have accepted all the awards.)

The Office of Admissions will notify scholarship recipients (and their high school counselors once an award is accepted.)

This endowed scholarship is established by Margaret Rounds Verlautz in memory of her parents, Erle and Alice Porter Rounds. The recipient is encouraged to send a note of appreciation to Mrs. Verlautz, c/o UWEC Foundation Office.
