Scholarships?
We’ve Got You!
At U of I, we offer students from all states and countries an affordable education. We offer two programs for out-of-state and international students: our WUE (Western Undergraduate Exchange) and the Invitation to Idaho scholarship. Both programs result in the same savings (over $16,000 per year). Regardless of where you call home, you may be eligible for one of these two programs.
Check uidaho.edu/ui-wue to learn more.
Home-schooled students and students from non-accredited high schools will be considered based on ACT and SAT scores. Additional need-based grant funds may be available based on the results of your FAFSA.
