The Undergraduate Scholarship Office (USO) helps UW undergraduates develop the tools and personal insights necessary to match their goals with local and national merit-based scholarship opportunities. National scholarship opportunities include the Fulbright, Goldwater, Marshall, Rhodes, Truman, and many others.

At USO, we:

• Mentor students through an intense process that results in competitive applications for national scholarships;
• Support students by offering resources, advising, and individual feedback through the scholarship process;
• Collaborate with faculty and staff to identify and support potential student scholars;
• Provide information and resources to students via workshops, fairs, web pages, and one-on-one assistance; and
• Maintain a database of merit-based scholarships available to eligible UW undergraduates.
