UAH recognizes the academic success of new transfer students by offering three-year transfer scholarships. No separate scholarship application is required. Students who submit an application for admission and official transcripts from all previously attended colleges are automatically eligible for consideration.
Scholarship Eligibility
2026-2027 Transfer Scholarships

| Minimum GPA | 3 | 3.5 |
| Transferable College Credit | at least 12 credit hours | at least 12 credit hours |
| Amount Awarded Annually for 3 years | $1,500 | $3,000 |
If your GPA increases once we receive your final transcript and it puts you in a higher scholarship bracket, we will automatically upgrade your scholarship. New and upgraded scholarships will not be awarded after the official add/drop date for full-term classes each semester.
Please note that an admission term change could change your scholarship eligibility. Scholarship values are for the 2026-2027 academic year only and are subject to change without notice.
