General Scholarship Application

Allyson Magee

Hello! We are wanting to update some of our questions on our general scholarship application. Would anyone be willing to share what questions you ask on your general application? Specifically, any short answer/essay questions you ask. Thank you!

@Allyson Magee We have more than 1,000 scholarship opportunities at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, and nearly 85% of them are auto-matched from our General Application (or conditional application at the school/college level). Here's a Word document with our questions for the coming year: General Application for AY 2023-24.docx

@Joel Spiess, thank you for sharing. Can we also see what your Non-FAFSA Need Worksheet looks like?

See attached. We revise yearly based on feedback from our committee members and students. If a question isn't helpful to a committee, we remove it from the following cycle or revise the phrasing. Hope this is helpful!
