Our Opportunities

Welcome to WesternU’s Institutional Scholarship Application! For most scholarships, the application opens to all students the Monday before Thanksgiving and closes the Tuesday after Martin Luther King Jr. Day, but a few scholarships may have different application periods.

Below you will find a listing of scholarships available to students from WesternU. To apply to scholarships which require an application, you must first sign in with the same user name and password you use to access the campus login portal. You will then have the opportunity to complete a general application and, if applicable, apply for specific scholarships.
