Transfer Grants & Other Resources
The Office of Financial Aid carefully reviews individual financial situation for transfer students. If it is determined that you have additional need, you may also qualify for a transfer grant. The following are various grant opportunities that may be offered to transfer students. Transfer students also can explore other outside resources.
Athletics
If you are a recruit for one of our 16 Division I athletic teams, your recruiting coach will provide you with options for an athletic grant in aid for your respective sport.
Edgecliff
Transfer students who are relatives of Edgecliff alumni (sons, daughters, brothers, sisters, nieces, nephews and grandchildren) will receive consideration for an Edgecliff Alumni Award. Grants are renewable for four years, if the student maintains full-time status and a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0. Award amounts are determined annually.
