Out of State Scholarship Opportunities
Scholarships are available for out of state students, but monies are limited so apply early! We recommend that only the strongest applicants apply from out of state and that they combine our scholarship offerings with one of the following two additional university programs:
WeberEdge Program for Out of State Students
Out of state students, check out Weber State's unique EDGE program. If you have a 3.0 high school GPA or ACT score of 23 or higher, plan to enroll as a full time student and looking to live on campus, you may qualify for in-state tuition rates.

WUE Program for Out of State Students
Students who live in participating states may also be eligible for the WUE (Western Undergraduate Exchange) Program. Under the WUE program, out-of-state students receive a significant discount by being assessed 150% of the in-state tution, instead of the full out of state tuition. Students must be eligible under all of the terms and conditions of the program. For more information click here:
