Other eligibility requirements

The University of Wyoming is proud to offer the Brown and Gold Commitment to eligible first-time international students (non-transfer). This Commitment is a merit-based financial pledge determined by a student’s cumulative grade point average (GPA), and it has two levels of support paid annually: USD $8,000 and USD $5,000.

Students must be degree-seeking through UW's Laramie or Casper campuses. UW Online students are not eligible for these scholarships. (This information is for the Fall 2026/Spring 2027 academic year. Unless otherwise noted, awards listed are for the academic year and not by semester).

The Brown and Gold Commitment is offered as a placeholder and will be funded with individual scholarships that are made possible through the generosity of UW Foundation donors and/or other institutional aid. Funding of this Commitment is contingent on the annual completion of the general application and any applicable recommended applications within WyoScholarships, UW's scholarship system.

The Brown and Gold Commitment normally cannot be combined with any additional institutional scholarship aid, including those made possible by the UW Foundation.
