OSU’s WUE Scholarship is Oregon State’s most competitive scholarship for new undergraduate students who are residents of a WUE-eligible U.S. state or territory. Recipients are selected based on a holistic review of their admission application. The selected students will receive a tuition discount that reduces the cost of their base tuition to no more than 150% of base tuition for resident students. OSU’s WUE Scholarship is renewable for up to four years (twelve terms) of support total.

Only about 30% of students from a WUE state or territory will be offered the WUE Scholarship, but many more will receive the Provost Scholarship to reward them for their academic success and help offset the cost of non-resident tuition.
