The School of Social Work understands the financial challenges you may face in completing your social work education. We encourage prospective and current students to explore a wide range of funding opportunities to help pay for your social work education. 

We encourage all applicants and students to complete the Free Application for Student Aid (FAFSA) (or the WAFSA if eligible). Completing the FAFSA is a requirement for many of our funding opportunities. UW's FAFSA priority deadline is generally January 15th, but has been extended this year until February 28th, 2024.  You can submit it after this deadline as well.
