Merit Scholarship Programs for Transfer Students

Simmons offers academic scholarships up to $15,000 for incoming undergraduate transfer students. These awards are determined by the Office of Admission and are awarded upon review of the admission application. Merit scholarships are renewable for a maximum of four years (eight semesters) of full-time undergraduate coursework. They may not be used for summer sessions, graduate coursework, and may not be combined with other waivers or merit scholarships.

The Simmons Alumnae Scholarship

Simmons Alumnae scholarships are renewable scholarships provided for relatives (typically children, grandchildren, or siblings) of Simmons graduates. The relative must have already graduated from Simmons. A separate application is not required; however, applicants should identify alumnae/us in their admission application.

The Achievement Scholarship

The Admission Committee grants the Achievement Scholarship to a select group of transfer students to acknowledge their academic achievement in both high school and college, as well as their contributions to these communities. Academic achievement, leadership, service, and co-curricular achievements distinguished candidates for this annual scholarship of $15,000. The Achievement Scholarship is renewable for a maximum of four years with satisfactory academic progress. A separate application is not required.
