Scholarships for transfer students at Coe College?

I'm looking to transfer to Coe College and I'm curious if they offer any scholarships specifically for transfer students. Does anyone know how competitive these scholarships are and what the application process is like?

Coe College indeed offers scholarships specifically intended for transfer students. The most prominent one is the Transfer Academic Scholarship, which provides between $18,000 to $27,000 per year, depending on the student's academic achievement. It's an automatic award, meaning there's no separate application process; all transfer applicants are considered upon admission based on their GPA.

Besides this academic scholarship, Phi Theta Kappa members (an honor society for students at two-year colleges) can also qualify for an additional scholarship of up to $2,000.

As for competitiveness, it falls mostly upon the applicant's academic achievements since these scholarships are merit-based, with a key focus on your GPA.

The process of applying is pretty straightforward since there's no separate application for these scholarships. However, you're advised to submit all application materials for admission to Coe College as early as possible to ensure prompt scholarship determination.

Remember, applying for financial aid can also be helpful. Submitting your FAFSA to Coe College will allow them to determine if you're eligible for any federal or state grants, or additional need-based support from the college. This will include you in consideration for a Coe Grant, which varies in amount depending on demonstrated financial need.
