Maximize available financial resources – consider what your UWin Student Award Profile will include – start now!

By completing the Awards Profile with your basic information, you may become eligible for a variety of awards.

Some awards require that you submit additional information on your Awards Profile. We want to get to know more about you.  By thoughtfully describing things such as what you are passionate about and why, the leadership opportunities you’ve seized, the achievements that you’re most proud of, the contributions you’ve made to your school and community, or the impact that your educational choice may have on our world, you may become eligible for many additional awards and financial resources.  Start thinking now about how you might answer these questions.

References provide critical support to your Award Profile.  These are the people that will speak with confidence about your fit for awards, and will help you to stand out in the crowd.  Give some thought to which teachers, employers or community contacts are best equipped to speak to your efforts and successes.   Contact potential references early, assist them by providing a comprehensive summary of your activities and check in with them prior to the deadlines.

Join our Microsoft Teams Session located here if you need personal assistance with your UWinAward Profile.
