This information is for the Fall 2025/Spring 2026 academic year. Unless otherwise noted, awards listed are for the academic year and not by semester.
The University of Wyoming is proud to offer a variety of opportunities for eligible incoming non-resident first-year students. All opportunities are based on the student's academic achievements at the time of admission to UW.
Please note: All University of Wyoming financial awards are only available to eligible admits. The awards are subject to available funding and the approval of the UW Board of Trustees; they reserve the right to change said rates at any time.

Test-optional: New first-year students will be reviewed using the test-optional dollar amount for the Brown & Gold Commitment; students who submit ACT/SAT test scores will be evaluated to determine if both unweighted GPA and test scores make them eligible for a possible higher tier.
The Western Undergraduate Exchange (WUE) award will still require an official ACT/SAT test score.
