I am thinking of transferring to Linfield College. No, financial aid does not transfer from one college to another. You need to apply for and receive financial aid from Linfield. Types and amounts of aid at Linfield may vary from what you are currently receiving. Linfield College does not award financial aid for the winter term.
Students usually have enough financial aid left over from fall to assist with their winter classes.
The only time winter and spring credits would be combined is when we are calculating your eligibility for your Spring Pell Grant. I know I must maintain at least 6 credits per semester to keep my Stafford loan monies. The only time credits are combined is in relation to the Pell Grant. Dropping below 6 credits would mean losing your Stafford loans. A financial aid counselor will be happy to explain the process of getting all the necessary financial aid papers completed and answer your questions.
