Honors Scholarship Resources

A number of scholarship awards are available to incoming UW students that have been accepted to the Honors Program - a complete list is availble at our Incoming Freshman Scholarships page. No application is necessary for these - students are evaluated for scholarship consideration as we make our admissions decisions. Please see our Freshman Admission page for general information about the application process.

The Honors Program administers a number of scholarships for current students, typically applied for and awarded during the Spring quarter. For a comprehensive list of these awards, please see our Current Student Scholarship list.

Husky Promise Program for Washington Residents

The University of Washington believes that students from all economic backgrounds should have the opportunity to attend the University of Washington. Finances should not be a barrier to getting an education. With the Husky Promise program the UW promises to cover the cost of tuition for students who otherwise could not afford to attend. For more information about the Husky Promise's requirements and benefits, click here.
