Students transferring from regionally accredited schools are awarded based on their academic achievements, and renewable scholarships range from $1,500 to $4,000, depending on eligibility.

Chris Jensen, interim director for the Academic Advising and Retention Center, encouraged students to visit the Transfer Center.

“The Transfer Center is a one-stop shop and can assist students with transfer admissions, advising, credit evaluation, financial aid, scholarships and more,” he said in a news release.

Students can apply by filling out an admissions application to WKU.
