Transfer Student Scholarships

College is expensive. That's why we offer generous scholarships and grants to help high-achieving transfer students with their college expenses. Scholarships and grants are forms of merit- or need-based aid that do not need to be repaid. Students can qualify for scholarships and grants from USF, the USF Foundation, Bright Futures and other organizations. Explore the kind of awards available, how to qualify and how to apply.
