Transfer Scholarships and Waivers

    Florida Gulf Coast University’s Undergraduate Admissions offers numerous scholarships for incoming freshman and transfer students.

    We suggest applying to the University early as our scholarships are competitive and most are awarded early in the admission cycle. Meeting minimum requirements does not guarantee a scholarship. Additional scholarships are available through the Office of Financial Aid, who administers the Foundation Scholarships (January 1st - priority deadline. May 1st - final deadline).

    Please select the scholarship that best applies to you.

    Remember, in addition to completing the scholarship application via the link below, students must also submit their admissions application by the specified deadlines.

    • Eagle Transfer Scholarship: This scholarship is available to students who have earned an Associate of Arts (A.A.) or Associate of Science (A.S.) degree and are Florida residents for tuition purposes. Applicants must also submit a FAFSA for the relevant aid year to FGCU and have a cumulative transfer GPA of 3.0 or higher.
    • Out-of-State Waiver: To be eligible for this waiver, students must be out-of-state residents with a cumulative transfer GPA of 3.4 or higher.
