Scholarship Information
WAA: Milwaukee Chapter Scholarships
The Wisconsin Alumni Association (WAA): Milwaukee Chapter will be providing at least seven $3,000 tuition scholarships for seniors graduating from Milwaukee County and Ozaukee County high schools in 2008 who will attend the University of Wisconsin - Madison. These scholarships are made on the basis of high school grades, extracurricular activities, need, and general social adjustment. This scholarship is for freshman year only.
Our Scholarship Committee will accept only two applications from each school – if more than two applications are submitted, only the first two received will be considered for the scholarship.
Please note: Because this is a tuition scholarship, the top ranked student(s) who will receive the Academic Excellence Scholarship to attend a Wisconsin university are not eligible to also receive our scholarship. For this reason, we suggest choosing two applicants other than the top ranked student(s) for this scholarship.
Completed applications should be sent to the address below and must be postmarked no later than March 7, 2008. Only finalists will be notified and interviewed by the Scholarship Committee in April. The awards will be made shortly thereafter. We would appreciate your cooperation in getting these applications to us in a timely manner. Applications received after the deadline will not be considered.
