Scholarship Resource Center

Scholarships are awarded in various amounts and are based on a number of criteria. Scholarships may be based on things such as academic performance, demonstrated financial need, programs of interest, year in school and other factors.

Federal regulations require us to consider scholarships when calculating a student's financial aid package and eligibility. Therefore, scholarships may potentially reduce other need-based aid. All scholarships should be reported on MyBlugold CampS Self Service Student Center or directly to the Financial Aid office. Every effort will be made to ensure the adjustment is as advantageous as possible to the student, reducing loan or work-study first.

Search the Outside Scholarship Database

These scholarships are provided by organizations independent of UWEC and are considered private, external opportunities. UWEC does not administer, sponsor, or endorse these scholarships, or the organizations offering them. Questions about eligibility, application requirements, or selection processes should be directed to the sponsoring organization. UWEC is not responsible for the content, administration, or outcomes of any external scholarship. Applicants are strongly encouraged to use caution when sharing personal or sensitive information. Inclusion on this database does not imply approval by UWEC. If you have concerns or a negative experience with a listed scholarship, you may report it to Blugold Central. 

Below is a searchable database of outside scholarships. All scholarships listed are applicable to UWEC students. You can filter and sort based on your preferences (e.g. major, ethnicity, financial need, etc.). It is best to view this database by selecting "View larger version" on the bottom right corner of the table. 

Don't pay a fee for financial aid or scholarship information. In a current scam, students are receiving a letter that is listing UW-Eau Claire and it appears to be from an official financial aid organization, but it is from a business that UW-Eau Claire does not endorse.
