Why apply for NWTC scholarships?
Scholarships provide an excellent way to fund tuition,
books and other educational expenses. Whether you are a high
school student or a new or continuing student at Northeast
Wisconsin Technical College, full or part-time, you can
reduce your financial obligations by applying for
scholarships available through the NWTC Foundation or
other organizations.
Scholarships are awarded to students who demonstrate
initiative, the desire and potential to succeed, show
academic progress, or have financial need.

The NWTC Foundation awards over $125,000 in scholarships each year to students taking classes through NWTC campuses in Green Bay, Marinette, Sturgeon Bay and the five regional learning centers located throughout Northeast Wisconsin. Scholarships are applied to tuition, fees, books and other course related expenses. Scholarships can replace personal payments or financial aid payments which could result in a refund of such payments for your living expenses.
