UW Colleges Money Matters
Grants
Grants are considered gift aid and do not have to be repaid. Most gift aid is based on some type of need-based eligibility requirement; therefore, you must complete the FAFSA to apply for most grants. Sources of grants include federal, state, private, and institutional funds. Although grants are a very desirable source of financial aid, the availability of grants is generally limited to the neediest students.
