  • UW Class of 1962 Endowed Scholarship provides financial assistance to current undergraduate students (all class levels) at UW.  The donors to this endowment, members of the University of Washington Class of 1962, wish to target support to students who may not qualify for financial aid but for whom the cost of attending the University poses significant financial challenges. The donors aim to fund “the gap”: the growing number of middle-class students, many of whom do not qualify for federal funding or Husky Promise and must take out student loans and work full- or part-time to support their education. Get additional details and access the online application at http://expd.uw.edu/expo/scholarships/Classof1962. Deadline – April 6.

 

  • UW Class of 1957 Scholars Award is sponsored by the UW Alumni Class of 1957 to provide scholarship support to outstanding undergraduate students at UW.  The scholarship shall be awarded to current sophomores, juniors and seniors based upon their academic merit and financial need.  (Graduating seniors are not eligible unless they are intend to enroll as a full-time student summer or fall quarter 2017.)
