Statement of Purpose

 

Please indicate below in a few paragraphs your reasons for wanting to study in and your expectations of the benefits you will receive.  In particular, describe the way in which the course work will fit into and enhance your degree program.

If you wish to prepare your Statement of Student Purpose using a word processor instead of typing it directly in the box below, you may do so. However, after saving your document but before copying and pasting it, you should save it again as a text file. Open the text file in a text editor, such as Notepad, then copy your statement and paste it below.
 

   
Financial Aid Status  (Must be completed by all Study Abroad Applicants)
     

1. I am currently registered as a full-time, degree-seeking student at UW-Platteville. (If you check here, then
    skip the remaining questions and simply fill in the bottom of this form.)

2. I am not currently registered at UW-Platteville.  (Go on to 3 or 4).

3. I am not planning nor is a parent planning to apply for any form of financial aid (e.g., Pell Grant, Supplemental
   
Education Opportunity Grant (SEOG), state grant, Perkins Loan, subsidized or unsubsidized Stafford Loan, 
    PLUS Loan, or special scholarships).  (If you check here, then skip the remaining questions and simply fill in
    the bottom of this form.)

4. I am planning to apply for financial aid or a parent is planning to apply for financial aid as exemplified in 3
    above.  (Go on to 5 or 6.)
5. The Financial Aid Office on my home campus will sign a Consortium Agreement with the UW-Platteville
    Financial Aid Office whereby I will continue to receive my financial aid from my home campus and that aid
    will be sent to Platteville to apply to my program cost. (Please meet with a financial aid counselor who is
    knowledgeable about Consortium Agreements for study-abroad programs sponsored by other institutions. If
    your financial aid counselor agrees to process your financial aid, then please ask him/her to send to the UW-
    Platteville Financial Aid Office the paperwork for a Consortium Agreement.)
6. The Financial Aid Office on my home campus will not sign a Consortium Agreement; therefore, I plan to apply
    directly to the UW-Platteville Financial Aid Office for my financial aid, and I will contact a financial aid
    counselor at UW-Platteville for further information (608-342-1836).
   

I verify that the information above is correct, and I understand that I must meet all of the UW System requirements for full and formal admission if I wish to receive financial aid from UW-Platteville.
   

College currently attending:

(if not currently enrolled, state "None")

   

Note to Students Who Have an Undergraduate Degree:
Students who have already received an undergraduate degree are not eligible for any financial aid.

   

Special Note to Summer Program Applicants:
If you are not currently enrolled at UW-Platteville, you cannot receive financial aid from UW-Platteville for a summer program, though you may be able to receive financial aid from your home campus via a Consortium Agreement.
