Transfer student scholarships

Recognizing the work you've already completed

We know that transitioning from your current college or university to IUPUI can be a big step in your academic career. At IUPUI, we're committed to rewarding high-achieving transfer students with scholarship opportunities, in recognition to the work you have already taken care of.

Transfer students are eligible for two types of scholarships: admission-based awards and competitive awards.

Admission-based awards are awarded at the time of admission, and are based on your academics. Competitive awards require a separate scholarship application, in addition to your application for admission to IUPUI (unless stated otherwise).

Let's talk about MAJOR awards

Did you know that the school that offers your academic major at IUPUI may also have a scholarship you can be considered for?
