Transfer students are eligible for a number of scholarships, both through UT and from outside sources. UT scholarships are usually awarded on the basis of academic merit, although some also include documented financial need in their selection criteria.
Outside scholarships are available from a variety of sources, and awards are normally competitive.
Some may be based on talent, religious affiliation, intended field of study, or other criteria. Information on outside scholarships can be obtained from sourcebooks in the reference sections at UT and local libraries. The final deadline for submission is March 1. Men s and women s athletic scholarships are also available in football, baseball, basketball, volleyball, swimming, diving, golf, track, and field, tennis, soccer, softball, and cross country. These scholarships are available through the Departments of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women and for Men.
