What transfer scholarships does Flagler College offer?

I'm considering transferring to Flagler College, and I'm curious about the scholarships available specifically for transfer students. Is there a particular scholarship I should look into, and how competitive are they generally?

Flagler College offers several scholarships that you might consider as a transfer student, each with its own set of requirements and award amounts.

First, there's the Phi Theta Kappa Scholarship, which is expressly aimed at transfer students who are members of the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society; the scholarship awards $2,500 a year.

Next, there's the Academic Merit Scholarship for Transfer Students, based on your cumulative GPA from all institutions prior to Flagler. The scholarship offers different tiers of award amounts, ranging from $4,000 to $10,000 per year. The more competitive your GPA, the higher the potential scholarship.

Then, there's the Flagler Legacy Scholarship. This scholarship is available to sons, daughters or grandchildren of Flagler College graduates, and offers $500 per academic year.

Remember that scholarship availability and offerings can change from year to year, and some may require separate applications, so it's best to check the most current information online through Flagler's website or by reaching out to the college's financial aid office. This will also give you a clearer idea of the competitiveness and number of scholarships awarded each year.

Also, don't forget to complete your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for other potential federal, state and institutional aid. While it might not be a scholarship, eligibilities for grants or need-based aid could still help offset your tuition costs.

Good luck in your transfer process and your search for scholarships! It's promising to see you're proactive about exploring financial aid options.
