Does Lycoming College offer scholarships specifically for transfer students? I'm trying to figure out how to finance my education when I transfer, so any details on available scholarships or the application process would be really useful.
Yes, Lycoming College does offer scholarships specifically for transfer students. The college has a merit program for transfer students and offers several scholarship options, each named after a historical figure associated with the college (like Peale, Long, and Rich scholarships). The range of scholarships can be up to $27,000 per year based on academic achievements before transfer.
The process to apply for these scholarships is fairly straightforward. By simply applying for admission to Lycoming College, transfer students are automatically considered for these scholarships, no separate application is required. The awards are based on your college transcript, primarily assessing your GPA. The better your academic performance, the higher scholarship you can be eligible for.
Remember, the scholarships offered are renewable as long as you maintain satisfactory academic progress according to the guidelines laid down by Lycoming. Other requirements might have to be met as well, so make sure to discuss these in detail with your college counselor or the financial aid office at Lycoming – they should be happy to guide you through this process. Good luck with your transfer!
