Are you almost done with your associate degree?
Maybe you’re looking for a fresh start at a new university?
If so, apply to the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and take advantage of exclusive scholarships and support for transfer students like you.
The scholarships listed in this post are exclusively for UTC transfer students. However, many UTC scholarships are available to both incoming freshmen and transfer students, so take a look.
You must start your UTC application to apply for all UTC transfer scholarships and financial aid. Remember, your financial aid does not automatically follow you from your previous school.
The 2024-25 UTC Online Scholarship Application is now available and includes important information about scholarship dates, deadlines and frequently asked questions. UTC uses this application to award the UTC Transfer Scholarship and other UTC-endowed scholarships.
UTC Financial Aid and Scholarships advises that transfer students should contact the academic department that houses their major for additional scholarships they may offer.
With a variety of programs and a supportive community, you’ll find the resources and guidance to get in, get your degree and achieve your future career goals.
UTC works closely with other colleges and universities across Tennessee and from around the country to ensure you’re on the fastest track to earning your degree and getting credit for courses you completed at other institutions.
