This program
applies to non-resident students, excluding students from Minnesota, since
Minnesota and Wisconsin have an additional tuition discount program. It offers
a 25 percent discount on the difference between resident and non-resident
tuition rates for students with parents, stepparents, or grandparents graduated
from UW-La Crosse.
For the 2013-2014
academic school year, the average savings for students enrolled in this program
was approximately $3,400.
One must fill out
the Return to Wisconsin Form and send it in to the Admissions Office to
establish a student’s eligibility. The application asks for student information
such as name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, and UW-La Crosse ID
number. The application also asks for alumni information. Here the UW-La Crosse
student must identify the relationship to the alumni, his or her name, address,
phone number, e-mail address, year of graduation from UW-La Crosse, and the
signature of the alumni attesting to the relationship, if living.
Students are able
to continue participation in the program throughout their college career by
continuing good academic standing and making satisfactory academic progress.
