2021-22
You’re automatically considered for academic scholarships once you’re admitted to the University — no separate scholarship application is required. Transfer students must have at least 12 transfer credits to be considered for scholarships.
Transfer scholarships range from $10,000 to $16,500 for students entering in the fall of 2021.
These scholarships are awarded to traditional, full-time transfer students based on college GPA for all coursework attempted.

Scholarships may have different academic expectations than federal, state, and University need-based aid.
Refer to your scholarship letter for academic standards required for renewal. In addition to the first year, scholarships are renewable for each year the student attends the University of Lynchburg, if renewal eligibility is maintained.
