OSFA Offers a Warm (though virtual) Wisconsin Welcome
The Office of Student Financial Aid kicked off Wisconsin Welcome, in partnership with the Center for First Year Experience, with a virtual activity for students to complete. The Search for Success Scavenger Hunt prompted students to explore important services, includingStudent Jobs, Office of Student Financial Aid Success Services, and theWisconsin Scholarship Hub (WiSH),while searching for specific answers to conquer the virtual scavenger hunt.Students used the magnifying glass icon (to the right) to navigate this challenge and record answers to various clues on the websites above. Clues included:
Which Be Engaged Workshop are you most interested in attending or viewing on demand this Fall Semester?
Which Success Service would you be most interested to learn more about or become connected with? Check all that apply.
Please write down the 4 or 6 digit job number of the Student Jobyou found that you are interested in.
After successfully tracking the answers at each clue, students completed the scavenger hunt by submitting the Wisconsin Scholarship Hub (WiSH) General Application, making them eligible for a prize AND future scholarships!As of Friday, September 11th, 52 students completed the scavenger hunt. Each student received either a gift basket or $10 restaurant gift card. Students also had the opportunity to meet with a professional staff member during a virtual office hours session (to the left) to receive additional information on the resources above. Thank you to all who put in time to brainstorm and execute this fun, interactive virtual experience for our students!
