Are there scholarships available for transfer students at Geneva College?

I'm considering transferring to Geneva College and want to know if there are scholarships specifically for transfer students. If anyone has experience or knows the process, I'd appreciate the insight on what's available and how to apply.

Yes, there are quite a few scholarships available for transfer students at Geneva College. Some key ones include:

1. Phi Theta Kappa Scholarship: If you're part of the Phi Theta Kappa Honors Society at your current institution, you could be eligible for this scholarship. You need to have a GPA of 3.5 or higher.

2. Transfer Excellence Award: This is awarded based on your GPA at your previous college. The amount you receive increases with your GPA. For instance, a GPA of 3.5 or above could earn you a sizeable award.

3. Christian School & Homeschool Grant: If you're transferring from a Christian college or you've been homeschooled, you might be eligible for this grant.

To apply for these scholarships, there's no separate application form. You're automatically considered when you apply for admission. The college's financial aid office reviews your application and any scholarships you qualify for will be included in your financial aid award letter.

In addition to these, Geneva College also accepts federal transfers, state grants, and even private scholarships which can further reduce your tuition cost. You'll want to update your FAFSA to include Geneva, so they can assess your need-based aid eligibility.

Remember to closely monitor your deadlines to make sure your financial aid does not delay. Also, keep in touch with the financial aid office at Geneva College to clarify any points of confusion. They can provide a wealth of information about how best to maximize your aid package. Good luck with your transfer process!
