The Western Welcome Scholarship and History-Making Match

This year, Western's top fundraising priority is the Western Welcome Scholarship — a scholarship that exemplifies Western's commitment to attracting and retaining the highest quality students. This scholarship bridges the gap between cost of attendance and financial aid. That means the gifts you make today help make Western a more inclusive and inviting university, as well as cement our status as one of Washington’s most important educational institutions.

The biggest match in WWU Give Day's history is this year. This is our opportunity to show the world what's important to Western - student success, critical thinking, academic excellence, and changing the world for the better. Taking advantage of this match doubles your impact on the world. You provide twice as many people a world-class education. Can you meet that challenge today?
