<p>I've been searching the Purdue website and wasn't able to find confirmation that transfer students are eligible for merit aid. Does anyone know if transfers receive merit scholarships? I noticed Purdue still has open spots and aid for transfers (I am considering transferring for financial reasons, and would have qualified for some scholarships at Purdue if I applied as a Freshman). My stats are:
1320/2040 SAT, 3.7ish HS GPA, no big ECs
College (Case Western):
3.5 GPA Poli Sci/HSTY major, Religion/Public Policy minor
varsity soccer, treasurer for YAFL, writer for school paper, Kappa Alpha Theta sorority, work study, not much else.
Thanks</p>
<p>Your best bet is to call someone in the Financial Aid department. If you’re talking about transferring this fall, most of the scholarship money may already be committed. I know they suffered a bit in their funding from the state, and are having to raise tuition 5% for in-state and 6% for out-of-state students for the 2009-2010 year. I think your options are better if you’re in-state.</p>
