I'm planning to apply as a transfer to Kenyon College and I'm wondering if they offer any scholarships specifically for transfer students. Any information on what's available would be super helpful!
Yes, Kenyon College does offer scholarships for transfer students. As per its official policy, transfer students are eligible for both need-based and merit-based assistance.
For need-based aid, you will need to complete and submit the necessary financial aid documents (like the FAFSA and CSS Profile) so that the school can evaluate your family's financial situation and determine how much aid you will be qualified for. Keep in mind that Kenyon meets 100% of demonstrated financial need for all admitted students, including transfers.
As for merit scholarships, every transfer applicant is automatically considered for the Kenyon College Transfer Scholarship. This award is given based on a holistic review of your application, including your academic achievements and potential contributions to the Kenyon community. This can be a substantial aid, so it's a great opportunity.
Remember to check the specific application deadlines for these scholarships and financial aid materials because they often differ from the general application deadline. Good luck with your transfer application!
