Ideal Applicant

A Wisconsin-based higher-education scholarship applicant or a college administrator managing scholarship awards for Wisconsin residents who meet the foundation's eligibility criteria (UW-system enrollment, financial need, graduated from a WI high school, and basketball participation).

Good Fit

  • Applicant is a Wisconsin resident and graduated from a Wisconsin high school.
  • Applicant is enrolled full time in a University of Wisconsin system two- or four-year program.
  • Applicant can document financial need and school basketball participation as required.
  • Institution can administer awards or accept scholarship disbursements on behalf of eligible students.

Geography

Restrictive

Observed giving is geographically narrow: all recorded grants in the observed years were to recipients in Wisconsin, with only one state represented.

Recipient Variety

Broad

The latest year shows 420 distinct recipients (420 grants) with low concentration (top five recipients about 2%), and the program funds many independent scholarship awards rather than a handful of large grantees.

New Applicants

Broad

Direct evidence of turnover and new access exists: 181 new recipients (≈43%) were funded in 2023, and a public online application process with deadlines is published, supporting realistic entry for unfamiliar applicants.
