Transfer Scholarship Opportunities


CUA Scholarship

Transfer students are automatically considered for academic scholarship. The award amount is variable and determined by the academic achievement at previous institution(s). If student has fewer than 24 college level credits, SAT/ACT test scores and high school transcripts will be used to determine scholarship qualification. International students are not eligible for CUA Scholarship.


Phi Theta Kappa Scholarship

The purpose of the Phi Theta Kappa scholarship is to recognize two-year college student’s academic achievement at their previous institution(s) and for stimulation of interest in continuing academic excellence. To be considered for the PTK scholarship, applicants must provide proof of PTK membership by submitting a copy of the certification of induction or it must be stated on the official college transcript.

International Students who are enrolled and transferring from a US two-year college and are a member of PTK with documentation can receive the PTK scholarship. That is the only award available to international students.
