Welcome!
At the Undergraduate Academic Awards Office we help UW-Madison undergraduates and recent graduates pursue nationally competitive scholarships and campuswide awards for research, service and leadership—activities at the heart of the Wisconsin Experience.
We can help you:
- Find scholarship opportunities that match your goals and interests
- Navigate the scholarship application process
- Review scholarship essays
- Prepare for national scholarship interviews
Contact us to schedule an appointment to discuss which opportunities are right for you. Use Starfish to make an appointment in-person or remotely through Zoom.
If you are an incoming freshman, or a current student interested in departmental and school/college scholarships, please see Scholarships@UW–Madison.
