To be considered for scholarships
- Get admitted by filling out the admissions application.

- Log in to your student portal, click the "Student Services" tab, and you'll find the "Scholarship Application" link on the left side of the page.
About the Scholarship Index Score
Eligibility for academic scholarships is determined by a student's index score, which is a combination of GPA and ACT or SAT scores. See the New Freshman 'INDEX CHART' to determine scholarship eligibility.
Sending ACT/SAT Scores
Make sure to send all ACT/SAT scores to WSU to be used for scholarship consideration. As students sign up to take the test they are given the opportunity to have scores sent directly to a few colleges at no cost. Using this option to send scores to WSU is an easy way to make sure we have them. In addition, WSU offers a residual ACT that students can take to try to improve their scores. For more information about the residual ACT test go to http://weber.edu/TestingCenter/act.html.

During the day, park on the north side of the Dee Event center and hop on the free shuttle. Starting at 4:30 p.m., parking is available in any A or W parking lot on campus. The A10, W7, and W8 will be the closest parking lots. For a map of campus, click here.
