Enrolling now for summer programs and scholarships - University of Wisconsin
Badger Precollege scholarship applications due April 17
Badger Precollege offers high school students the opportunity to learn more about college life and academics, gain valuable experience in independence, and pursue new and growing passions. It is an opportunity to invest in their future, inside and outside the classroom.
Our team is dedicated to providing this opportunity to as many students as possible. We do our best to provide as many need-based scholarships to students as we can. In practice, about 25% of our students receive a full or partial need-based scholarship each year.
The deadline for Badger Precollege scholarship applications is April 17 for all programs! A complete scholarship application includes both a completed program application and the scholarship forms.
We also encourage students to check with school officials to see if local monies are available to help cover program costs. If you know of scholarship or financial aid opportunities, we encourage you to work with your students to share additional resources for their success. Thank you!
