Maroon Tycoons

A page within It Make$ Cents!

The Maroon Tycoons are a select group of students who have dedicated their time and effort to finding and applying for scholarships. These students have been awarded over

$10,000

and some, even up to $40,000 in scholarships in a single academic year! We commend and celebrate this accomplishment as anyone who achieves this feat, has enough funding to completely pay for an academic year’s worth of tuition. Below is our Maroon Tycoon Wall of Fame, where our proud UWL students can be recognized well into the future.
