Western Welcome Student Scholarship
Make Western More Inclusive!

The Western Welcome Scholarship improves access for students who, while qualified to attend Western, might not apply or accept an offer of admission due to the funding gap that exists between a WWU financial aid package and the typical cost to attend Western. This scholarship addresses WWU’s commitment to increasing access to higher education to historically underrepresented students, including those who are the first in their family to attend college.

While dozens of programs across Western rely on generous donors like you on Give Day, please consider supporting the Western Welcome Scholarship.

You can help support incoming students who may have difficulty paying tuition and perhaps thought a Western education was out of reach. Your gift means we can share this unique Western experience with even more deserving students.

Thank you for supporting access to Western!
