Programme Overview

The university is pleased to offer merit scholarships to academically exceptional transfer (domestic and international) students who are accepted for admission as undergraduates. As a transfer student, you are already on the path to pursuing your passion and discovering your purpose. At Pacific, we help you finish what you started. The scholarships below are exclusively for transfer students.

Benefits

The Transfer Academic Excellence merit scholarship ranges in annual value from $16,000 to $25,000. Transfer students who are enrolled via UOP International are not eligible for this award but can contact Admissions UOPI to learn about alternative scholarship opportunities.

Requirements

• Minimum cumulative transfer GPA of 2.60
• You are not required to submit the FAFSA to be considered for a transfer merit scholarship and there is no separate scholarship application.
• Transfer merit scholarships are determined holistically, with factors such as transfer grade point average, curriculum rigor, commitment, extracurricular activities and obligations, leadership, and demonstrated interest all being factors. 

Merit Scholarship Renewal Requirements

• Retaining your merit scholarship requires maintaining full-time enrollment (12 or more units per semester) as an undergraduate at Pacific in a bachelor's or pre-professional program and maintaining Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) toward completion of your degree.  
• Transfer merit scholarships can generally be renewed for full-time enrollment in your first bachelor's degree program for up to a total of three years (six fall and spring semesters) of scholarship support. 
• Scholarships can only be applied to undergraduate coursework and cannot be applied to professional coursework in pharmacy, dentistry, or law. Thus, students are no longer eligible for merit scholarships once they begin their graduate level courses in the pharmacy, dentistry and law programs.
