3 steps to apply for WGU scholarships.

Now that you've looked at scholarship requirements and found one to apply for, here are the steps to apply.

1. Complete the returning graduate application.

To be considered for any WGU scholarships, you must be provisionally accepted as a returning WGU student. Complete the application and work with your enrollment counselor to move through the admissions process.

2. Complete the general scholarship application.

The general application is required for all WGU scholarships and lets us learn more about you and which scholarships you may be eligible for. To access the application, you will need your MyWGU student portal credentials, which will be sent to you shortly after Step 1. NOTE: You are eligible to apply for scholarships within 90 days of starting a degree program, either before or after. You must complete the application within 90 days of your intended start date.

3. Log in to the scholarship portal and apply.

Based on what you tell us in Step 2, we’ll let you know which scholarships you might be eligible for. Finish up by reviewing the recommended opportunities and completing the supplemental application for each scholarship you’d like to be considered for by logging into the Scholarship Portal. These additional applications need to be submitted within 5 days of submitting the general application.
