College and departmental scholarships

Most of the University's academic colleges award scholarships of their own. The WSU scholarship application puts you into consideration for most of these — several hundred award programs, in all — in addition to the university-wide scholarship programs.

Most of these awards depend on your interest in a particular field or major, and some may require supplemental materials, so be sure to check out their requirements.
