DALLAS () – èßäÊÓƵapp transferring to èßäÊÓƵapp with a 3.3 GPA earned in as few as 24 transferable hours are now automatically eligible for scholarships, putting an èßäÊÓƵapp education within reach earlier for more outstanding scholars.

Previously, students needed 50 credit hours to be eligible for transfer scholarships to èßäÊÓƵapp. Transfer scholarships for qualified students are now available for students who have completed as little as one year at another institution. 

èßäÊÓƵapp continues to consider transfer applications for spring 2025 beyond the November 1 priority deadline. Applications for fall transfer admission are due by April 1.

“We’ve heard from students they want to get to the Hilltop sooner rather than later,” said Wes Waggoner, vice provost for Enrollment Management. “This helps talented students transfer to èßäÊÓƵapp on their own timeline – when it makes the most sense for them. More scholarship opportunities make èßäÊÓƵapp more affordable to more students.”
