Tuition Exchange Scholarship Program
Ä¢¹½TVÏÂÔØ is proud to be a member of two national tuition exchange programs, which offer undergraduate scholarship opportunities for the dependent children of eligible faculty and staff employed at participating member institutions.
The programs Ä¢¹½TVÏÂÔØparticipates in are:
- The Tuition Exchange (TE)
- The Council of Independent Colleges (CIC) Tuition Exchange Program
Eligibility and Application Process
The Ä¢¹½TVÏÂÔØTuition Exchange Scholarship is a highly competitive, full-tuition award for up to four years (eight semesters) of undergraduate study.
Applicant Requirements
For a student to be considered for a Tuition Exchange Scholarship at Ä¢¹½TVÏÂÔØ, they must meet the following criteria:
- Eligibility: Your parent/guardian must submit an application through and/or be certified as an export candidate by the college/university where they are employed.
- Ä¢¹½TVÏÂÔØ: The student must apply for and be formally admitted to Ä¢¹½TVÏÂÔØ as a first-time undergraduate student. Ä¢¹½TVÏÂÔØdoes not consider offers to transfer students, graduate students, or current students who did not receive the scholarship as incoming first-year students.
- FAFSA: All Tuition Exchange scholars are required to complete and submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) annually.
Ä¢¹½TVÏÂÔØTuition Exchange Policies
- The Tuition Exchange Scholarship is a competitive award, and Ä¢¹½TVÏÂÔØcannot award scholarships to all eligible applicants. Final scholarship decisions are made by the Ä¢¹½TVÏÂÔØTuition Exchange scholarship committee based on the number of available import slots, the student's academic credentials, the overall applicant pool, etc. Each year, Ä¢¹½TVÏÂÔØreceives approximately 75 tuition exchange applications and awards approximately 10 scholarships.
- The scholarship is a full-tuition award. All students are still responsible for the cost of room, board, and fees.
- The award is typically renewable for a total of eight semesters of full-time undergraduate study, provided the student maintains good social and academic standing and continues to meet all eligibility requirements.
- The scholarship cannot be used if a student studies abroad.
- Federal and state aid a student may receive may be applied toward the cost of tuition, with the remaining tuition costs covered through the Ä¢¹½TVÏÂÔØTuition Exchange Scholarship.
- Tuition Exchange scholars are required to live on campus all four years (eight semesters) while receiving the award.
Deadlines (Import Candidates): The annual deadline for the receipt of import candidate applications (the final TE application submitted by your home institution) is January 1. Applications received after January 1 will not typically be considered for the scholarship. Scholarship recipients will be notified beginning February 1.
