    How to win Wyoming scholarships

    Wyoming is home to cowboys, national parks, and plenty of wide open spaces. So, in order to win Wyoming scholarships and be able to study in this awesome state, you just need to be yourself! 

    You should emphasize your personal connection to Wyoming and what makes Wyoming such a great state. For example, if you grew up visiting Yellowstone National Park, you could describe in detail how amazing your experience was. Share how Yellowstone’s beauty inspired you to study conservation in college in order to preserve national parks such as Yellowstone.

    Consider in-state tuition and tuition reciprocity

    In-state tuition allows residents of a state to receive cheaper tuition for a college or university in their state. Additionally, many universities and colleges reserve scholarships and financial aid for in-state students, which helps reduce the cost of attending college for those who live there.

    For example here is the University of Wyoming’s in-state vs out-of-state tuition rates: 

    University of Wyoming

    • In-state tuition: $4,980
    • Out-of-state tuition: $20,760

    How do you get in-state tuition?

    In order to obtain Wyoming residency for tuition purposes you will need to physically reside in Wyoming for at least 12 consecutive months before making an appeal for residency tuition. Then you will need to establish a domicile by doing the following: 

    • Wyoming vehicle registration
    • A valid Wyoming driver’s license
    • Gainful employment
    • A Wyoming voter registration
    • A Wyoming address on the most recent federal income tax return
    • Documented use of a local Wyoming bank
    • Change in permanent address on all records pertinent to Wyoming
    • Proof that the individual receives public assistance from the State of Wyoming
