- submit all necessary application materials for full-time undergraduate study
- are academically admissible to UW-Superior
- submit a TAP application form (attached in the bottom)
- demonstrate sufficient financial support for the remaining expenses
Global TAP Scholarships ($2,000/year) are awarded, in addition to the TAP Grant, to students who demonstrate particularly strong academic achievement.
Note that for Global TAP Scholarships:
- academic merit is the primary basis for the award, but financial need may be taken into consideration
- special consideration is given for achievement demonstrated through scores from the SAT, ACT, the International Baccalaureate program or internationally-administered A-Level exams.
- athletic ability is not a criterion, but other forms of school or community involvement are considered.
- a personal statement and/or letters of recommendation are encouraged
- all students who meet the criteria for the TAP Grant are automatically given consideration for a Global TAP Scholarship
