Does anyone know if Cornell College offers scholarships specifically for transfer students? I'd appreciate any information on financial aid opportunities available for students like me hoping to transfer.
Absolutely, Cornell College does offer financial aid opportunities for transfer students. All transfer students are automatically considered for merit scholarships based at least partially on academic achievement. These awards range from $15,000 to $30,000 per year and are renewable for up to three years, provided the student maintains satisfactory academic progress.
Moreover, transfer students are eligible for need-based financial aid. If you're interested in this, make sure to complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) as soon as possible after October 1st with Cornell College’s school code (001856), and your financial information will be reviewed to determine your eligibility for grants, work-study, and loans.
Last but not least, don't forget that external scholarships are also a great resource. You can utilize a scholarship search platform like Appily to find additional funding opportunities. Remember, every bit helps when it comes to making college more affordable!
