I'm planning to transfer to Hunter College, and I'm curious if there are any scholarships available specifically for transfer students. If anyone has experience or knows about the options, I'd love to hear!
Hunter College does offer scholarships, and while it doesn't explicitly designate ones specifically for transfer students, you aren't precluded from applying for many of these. For instance, there's the Brookdale Memorial Scholarship for full-time students with a GPA of 2.5 or higher and the Skadden Arps Honors Program in Legal Studies for students interested in law.
To seek out scholarship opportunities, you can start with Hunter College's scholarship office. They maintain a list of available scholarships, including their requirements and deadlines, which can be very useful. It could also be beneficial to check with your department of interest, as some departments may offer individual scholarships not listed on the main scholarship page.
Additionally, consider reaching out to the Financial Aid Office, as they might be able to provide more specific guidance based on your unique circumstances. Remember to file your FAFSA, as this will be required for many scholarships. It's important to search and apply as early as possible because some have very specific application dates. Good luck with your transfer process!
