Financial Aid for Scripps College International Transfers?

I'm an international student considering transferring to Scripps College. I know transfer student financial aid can vary, but does Scripps offer good options for international transfers? Any advice on the application process or resources to check out?

Scripps College is dedicated to meeting 100% of the demonstrated need for all students admitted to the college, including international students. However, international students are required to apply for financial aid at the time of admission. You will not be able to apply for institutional aid after your admission.

In terms of your application, for transfer students applying for the Fall semester the deadline is usually around March 15, and around November 15 for a Spring transfer. I'd recommend confirming on Scripps' website, though, as the date can change slightly year to year, and also might differ from that of the main application.

To apply for financial aid, the main materials are the FAFSA and CSS Profile, although there are some supplementary materials such as a tax return. The exact documents you need to submit can vary based on country and personal circumstances, so definitely don't hesitate to reach out to the financial aid office directly for clarification.

In addition to applying for institutional aid from Scripps, I'd explore external scholarships that can be used at any college or university. Remember, every bit helps when covering your college costs. Resources like Appily can be useful for finding these, but be sure to verify eligibility requirements as some scholarships are restricted to U.S. citizens or residents. Given the high cost of studying in the U.S., I would encourage you to pursue as many financial aid and scholarship opportunities as possible.

In terms of school-specific resources, Scripps College's financial aid office would be your best source of accurate, up-to-date information. You may want to reach out to them directly with specific questions about your situation. They can guide you on the financial aid application process and potential funding available for international transfer students. Good luck!
