WSU Alumni Association License Plate Scholarship
In 1999, the Wichita State University Alumni Association created the WSU Alumni Association License Plate Scholarship Fund. University supporters who purchase an official State of Kansas WSU license plate pay an annual fee that goes to fund scholarships. The amount awarded in scholarships each year is determined by the funds generated by the license plate program and range from $1,000 to $4,000. Recipients are awarded based on a combination of GPA, campus involvement, community activities, leadership, work history, financial need, and overall impression.
