SFUAD Transfer Award

for continuing students

The SFUAD Transfer Award was established to welcome SFUAD transfer students to the Columbia College Chicago community.

• Scholarship Terms
  • The SFUAD Transfer Award is renewable each year up to 120 attempted credit hours (BA), 128 attempted credit hours (BFA, BS, BMus), or four years*, whichever is reached first. The total credit hours include all transferrable college credit hours, Advanced Placement credit hours, CLEP credit hours, and credit hours earned at other colleges and universities under dual enrollment. For the scholarship to be renewable, the recipient must:
    • Be enrolled full-time each semester;
    • Not interrupt enrollment;
    • Maintain a minimum 3.0 cumulative grade point average.
  • The credit hour and four-year limits are not based on degree completion, and the same limits apply to students pursuing double majors.
  • Scholarship is applied toward tuition only.
  • Funds are awarded during Fall and Spring semesters only.
  • Scholarship may be used toward a study abroad program through one of Columbia's student exchange programs. Please note: Recipients who enroll in an independent study abroad program not associated with Columbia College will forfeit their scholarship during the semester spent abroad, but will retain future eligibility if all other scholarship terms are met.
  • Scholarship is limited to courses for which a student registers through MyColumbia and does not cover Columbia Online courses. 
  • The rules governing other sources of financial aid (federal, state, institutional and other grants, gifts, or loans) will apply.
