Outside Scholarship Database
A page within Scholarship Resource Center
The Outside Scholarship Database is a database created by the UWL Scholarship Resource Center (SRC). We find external scholarship opportunities and add them here. Since new scholarships are always being added there are scholarships available year round! Please note that these scholarships are not affiliated with UWL and could be local, statewide, or national opportunities.
