The Wisconsin Academic Excellence Scholarships are awarded to Wisconsin high school seniors who have the highest grade point average in each public and private high school throughout the State of Wisconsin. The number of scholarships each high school is eligible for is based on total student enrollment. In order to receive a scholarship, a student must be enrolled by September 30th of the academic year following the academic year in which he or she was designated as a scholar, at a participating University of Wisconsin, Wisconsin Technical College, or independent institution in the state. Eligibility must not exceed 8 semesters. There is no application as recipients are designated by their high school based on GPA. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Wisconsin Higher Educational Aid Board for more information.
