Transfer Scholarships
General Information:
All scholarships are limited, competitive, and are awarded annually on a rolling basis early in the scholarship cycle. Meeting minimum requirements does not guarantee a scholarship. Most of our transfer awards require continuous enrollment (excluding summers), full-time status (12 credits or more at FAU), and pay out for fall and spring terms only. Scholarships offered through the Office of Undergraduate Admissions are not stackable.
Scholarship application deadlines are March 1st until otherwise noted.
Students who are admitted to FAU are eligible to apply for Office of Undergraduate Admissions scholarships.
