    About this scholarship

    The Founders' (Transfer/Nursing) scholarship is a merit-based financial aid program offered by Alverno College. This award is designed specifically for incoming transfer students and 2+2 nursing students who are transitioning to the institution. To qualify, transfer applicants must have a cumulative grade point average between 2.3 and 2.99, while 2+2 nursing applicants must hold a grade point average between 2.5 and 2.99.

    The scholarship provides $18,000 per year to help cover educational costs, and the funding is renewable for subsequent years of study. Because this is a merit-based award determined during the admissions process, it is automatically awarded to eligible students upon their acceptance to the college. Although a separate scholarship application is not required, applicants should complete the FAFSA to ensure they are considered for all other federal, state, and institutional aid. For current dates and deadlines, please see the official page.

    How we check listings

    Every listing links to the provider's official page. Before it goes live, its amount and dates must appear on that page, the link must work and it must pass our scam checks; anything that fails a check waits for an editor. We re-check links every week. Listings not re-verified within six months leave our search until they are.
