How affordable is the UW now?
Kiplinger’s Personal Finance placed the UW in the top 10 nationally as one of the best values in education among schools identified as offering academic excellence at affordable prices (www.kiplinger.com/tools/colleges/). Currently, the UW offers more than $160 million in financial aid each year, with nearly half of all undergraduates receiving aid. Each year, over 5,000 UW students — both undergraduate and graduate — receive more than $20 million in scholarships alone through grants, gifts or endowed funds.
