UWM Continuing Education (CE) Grant
The Continuing Education (CE) Grant is designed to assist adult learners and non-traditional students who are returning to education, whether to complete a degree, pursue professional development, or acquire new skills. The grant is intended to alleviate some of the financial burdens associated with tuition, fees, and other educational expenses.
This grant is typically aimed at students who are not enrolled full-time or those pursuing specific professional development courses, certificates, or part-time degrees. It may also support individuals who are returning to school after a significant break in their education or who are balancing education with other responsibilities, such as work or family.
The amount awarded by the CE Grant varies based on the availability of funds and the number of applicants. The grant is usually need-based, meaning applicants must demonstrate financial need as part of the application process.
