Learn any place and time that is convenient to you, and the faster you demonstrate what you know, the faster you finish.

WGU will contribute to AmeriCorps Alumni educational success by:

• Waiving the $65 application fee for all new AmeriCorps applicants
• Providing competitive scholarships valued up to $2,500 for AmeriCorps Alumni. Not everyone who applies will be awarded, and selection is based on academic merit, financial need, and the strength of the scholarship application and interview.
