Transfer Scholarships

Many local universities offer additional scholarships if you are graduating from Broward College with your associate’s degree and want to pursue a bachelor’s degree, or if you simply wish to transfer schools. However, the Honors Institute does not offer a transfer scholarship.  Rather, we work with students to secure transfer scholarships from four-year institutions. Schools with transfer scholarships for Honors students include:
