WSF APPLICATION PROCESS

Most of our scholarships are accessed through our online One-Stop Scholarship Application. This means you will be automatically considered for all the scholarships for which you are eligible—with just one application. You’ll need to complete the application in full and provide supplemental materials. We’ll take it from there!

Here’s how the process works:

1. For U.S. citizens, first complete the FAFSA form at fafsa.gov. (For non-citizens, enter WSF portal after January 1 and follow instructions.)
2. Access our One-Stop Scholarship Application. You'll create an online account you can access at any time—so you can save your work and return to it later.
3. Complete the General Application, as well as any other recommended opportunities you are prompted to complete. Be sure to meet the firm deadlines listed above.
4. Additional items you’ll need to have on hand to complete your application:
   – FAFSA Submission Summary after completing the FAFSA form
   – High school grade transcript through the 11^th grade for graduating high school seniors or college grade transcript for students who are already in college, whichever is the most recent.  
   – Contact information for someone to provide a recommendation on your behalf
5. Students are notified of awards for WSF Scholars in May and for Access Scholarships in August.

Other Scholarships

In addition to our One-Stop Scholarships, we also have scholarships with outside selection processes. These opportunities will not be identified by our One-Stop Scholarship Application, and you must contact each scholarship committee or guidance office individually to inquire about their application process and deadlines.
