  *   Applying for UW nomination<https://expo.uw.edu/expo/apply/663>: UW students and alumni can complete a single campus application to be considered for nomination to any or multiple of these scholarships. An internal UW campus review committee will review applications and make nomination decisions, allowing nominees significant time to prepare for the national and international application processes throughout summer (final deadlines will be in early fall 2022 for graduate studies starting in fall 2023).

  *   Gates Cambridge Scholarships and many of the Rhodes Scholarships offered to citizens of countries around the world do not require UW nomination, but we strongly encourage students to connect with scholarship advisers<https://expd.uw.edu/scholarships/applying/scholarship-advising/> for support in developing competitive applications.
