The following scholarships are awarded once you have: 1) been accepted for admission, 2) met the necessary criteria for the scholarship with official documentation, and applied for financial aid through submission of the FAFSA. You will receive the largest scholarship for which you are qualified.

Non-resident Transfer Assistance Scholarship - $1,000/yr for up to 2 years
President's Transfer Scholarship - $3,000/yr for up to 2 years
Phi Theta Kappa Scholarship - $500 one time award in addition to any other eligible scholarships
Award Process: Once required admission documentation (official transcripts, etc.) and FAFSA application (if required) are received, the scholarship with the highest monetary value will be applied to your account automatically. The Phi Theta Kappa scholarship will be applied to your account when membership has been documented.
Additional scholarships? You are encouraged to apply directly to the Scholarship Office for additional WT Foundation scholarships. These additional awards are not automatic and require an application before the listed deadline.
Renewal for second year: You must earn 30 credit hours and maintain a 3.3 GPA the first academic year at WT to be eligible for renewal of this scholarship. If you maintain this standard, your scholarship will be automatically renewed for a second year. Scholarships are divided equally between Fall and Spring terms.
Who is a transfer student? Students who enroll for the first time at WT with more than 12 post-high school credit hours will be considered transfer students for the purposes of these scholarships.
