Start early, 18 to 24 months before you wish to begin your degree program; do not wait until you are admitted to apply for funding. Expect small amounts from a number of different sources - don't count on one large amount to pay for it all. See your unique qualities as strengths - the UW sees scholarships, grants and fellowships as important forms of financial aid for achieving diversity in the student population. Use a variety of tools to locate scholarships, including the Web and your personal contacts. Apply to more than one source of funding.
