Walter & Mary Hampel Scholarship

The Walter & Mary Hampel Scholarship is designed to support undergraduate, first-generation college students who demonstrate academic merit with a GPA of 3.0 or higher. This renewable scholarship specifically seeks to assist students who are immigrants to the United States or children of immigrants, recognizing the unique challenges faced by first-generation Americans pursuing higher education. The scholarship is offered through the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Foundation and provides financial support to help eligible students achieve their educational goals. Financial need may be considered as part of the selection criteria, though academic merit and first-generation/immigrant status are the primary factors.
