Jan & Tom Montiegel Scholarship
The Jan and Tom Montiegel Scholarship is an academic merit scholarship given to students with demonstrated academic excellence who are enrolled full-time in a major within the College of Letters & Science.
New incoming freshmen who complete the New Directions application between October and December of their senior year of high school will be considered for both New Directions and the Montiegel scholarship. Use the portal search function to find “New Directions”.
Continuing Letters & Science students who have an up-to-date Panther Scholarship Portal General Application and the College of Letters & Science Scholarships and Awards Application will be considered typically in spring each year between February and March. No additional or separate application is required for currently enrolled UWM students; instead students should thoroughly fill out the Panther Scholarship Portal General Application and the College of Letters & Science Scholarships and Awards Application. Awards given in spring are for the following school year so students graduating that same spring or summer are not eligible. E.G. applications reviewed in Spring 2024 are for Fall 2024; students graduating in May or August 2024 are not eligible.
For both incoming freshmen and continuing students, eligible students will have a GPA of 3.7 or higher and a record of academic achievement.
