Western Michigan University (WMU) offers various scholarship opportunities for students, including merit-based, need-based, and program-specific awards. Merit scholarships, such as the Medallion Scholarship, recognize academic excellence and range from $1,000 to full tuition. Need-based aid is determined through FAFSA, while departmental scholarships cater to specific majors or extracurricular achievements.
External scholarships, like the Kalamazoo Promise, support local students. WMU also encourages applications for national awards, such as the Fulbright Program. Prospective students should review WMU’s financial aid website, meet deadlines, and complete required essays or recommendations to maximize eligibility.
