GIESO general scholarship applications open until Feb. 28

Applications are now open for scholarships for both undergraduate students and graduate students who are actively supporting WSU’s LGBTQIA2S+ community.

Please complete the Washington State University online scholarship application by Feb. 28 to be considered. Interested students will also need to submit the GIESO scholarship application and plan to be enrolled at WSU for the 2025 fall semester. This scholarship is available to all WSU students on any WSU campus.

Applications will be reviewed in March and announced in early April. The person selected will be recognized during the GIESO Spring Celebration in April.
