<p>Do either of these scholarships apply to transfers? I was a National Merit Scholar as well as a National Hispanic Scholar in high school, but right now I’m looking to transfer from my local community college. Does Alabama have any scholarships for transfers?</p>
<p>UA’s NMF and NHS scholarships are for incoming freshmen only.</p>
<p>Here’s the link for transfer students. Some aren’t for CC’s from other states.</p>

<p>I remember reading your other thread. You might also try Miss St. They would probably give you more.</p>
<p>I don’t know how much you need, but it’s hard to find much as a transfer student. I don’t know of one college that gives merit money to a NMF transfer from a CC. The reason this happens is because colleges help their rankings by bringing in the best crop of freshmen. That’s why the big money if offered for incoming freshmen.</p>
<p>What Calif schools are you considering…they probably will be your best financial bet since the cost will be lower if you go to a state school.</p>
<p>I’m actually from NJ. As far as state schools looking at both Rutgers and TCNJ.</p>
<p>Ooops…</p>
<p>For some reason, I thought you were from Calif. LOL (I so need to use a cheat sheet to keep people straight!!! )</p>
<p>Can you pay full freight for college, or will you be needing a lot of F/A? It’s very hard to find colleges that give significant merit money to transfers. I think Miss St is the only one that I know that will at least give some OOS transfer students in-state tuition rate.</p>
<p>I am able to pay full freight if needed (have some loans and a couple outside scholarships) but any help from the school (whichever one that may be) would be excellent.</p>
<p>Ok…</p>
<p>Well, along with some “in state” choices, I’m thinking that your better choices are state schools that don’t charge a lot for OOS students.</p>
<p>UA is one of the lowest flagship schools for OOS students. There are cheaper ones, but they’re lower ranking.</p>
<p>Have you visited UA? If not, can you? </p>
<p>Have you looked thru the website? have you done the virtual tour?</p>
