Presidential Scholarships
Transfer Students
You've already invested time in furthering your education, and we want to honor that investment. That's why we look at your most recent academic experience to determine your eligibility for scholarships at Wheaton College.
Transfer Students with 24 or more semester college credits can merit a Presidential Scholarship on College GPA alone:
| College GPA | Presidential Scholarship |
|---|---|
| 3.5-3.74 | $12,000/yr Edman Presidential Scholarship |
| 3.75-4.0 | $16,000/yr Blanchard Presidential Scholarship |
Transfer students with 23 or less semester college credits can merit a Presidential Scholarship based on a holistic review of their standardized test scores, high school and college GPA, academic rigor of their school curriculum, and class rank (if available).
The Presidential Scholarships are renewable through your expected date of graduation (up to 8 semesters) for students who remain in good academic standing.
