STEPS TO ENROLLMENT

Step 1: Apply for Admission ONLINE!

Step 2: Submit your transcripts and ACT/SAT scores to UWRF.

Step 3: Research your Military Education Benefits 

The University does NOT evaluate your service record to determine your benefits eligibility; that is the role of the VA. However, if you have questions regarding education benefits please do not hesitate to contact us.

Please note: active duty service can change your veteran education benefit eligibility. Please take time in researching benefits that may be available for you.

Step 4: Apply for Federal VA and State benefits online.

Step 5: Request to use Military Education Benefits (Must be done EVERY Semester)

Step 6: Apply for financial aid.

  • If you are interested in receiving federal and state financial aid, you must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
  • Visit http://www.fafsa.ed.gov/ to complete the application.
  • The FAFSA is available after January 1, each year.
  • Complete the FAFSA as early as possible to guarantee all types of aid you are eligible for are still available.
  • You must complete the FAFSA each year you would like to receive aid.
