University of Kentucky Transfer Achievement Scholarship

About this scholarship

The University of Kentucky Transfer Achievement Scholarship is an international transfer student scholarship listed by the UK International Center. The scholarship is valued at $4,000 per year and requires a minimum GPA of 3.0. It is partial funding because it reduces the cost of undergraduate study but does not cover full tuition, fees, housing, meals, books, health insurance, travel, or personal expenses. UK states that scholarships are awarded only to applicants admitted for the fall semester, that applicants with missing documentation may not be considered, and that no scholarships are awarded in the spring semester. The scholarship page lists the priority deadline for the Transfer Achievement Scholarship as June 15. Students apply through the University of Kentucky transfer admission process; the scholarship is tied to admission and eligibility review rather than a separately published form on the international scholarship list. This award is separate from UK's International Ambassador Scholarship for transfer students, which requires supplementary materials and has its own priority deadline.
