University of Louisville Global Transfer Scholarship

About this scholarship

The University of Louisville Global Transfer Scholarship is an undergraduate scholarship for transfer international students who hold F-1 visa status. UofL lists the annual award amount at $5,000 for transfer international students with a college GPA of 3.0 or higher. The scholarship is applied automatically upon admission, meaning students do not need to complete a separate scholarship application for this specific award. It is partial funding because it reduces educational costs but does not cover full tuition, fees, housing, meals, health insurance, books, travel, or personal expenses. The award may be provided for up to six semesters if the recipient maintains a 2.5 college GPA. UofL states that all scholarships are open to eligible students regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, disability, or age. The practical application route is the undergraduate transfer admission process, where students submit academic records and any international documentation required for admission and visa review. Students should contact UofL international admissions if they need clarification on transfer-credit or GPA conversion.
