How do I know if my credits will transfer and apply to my UT degree? You can get a preliminary idea of how your credits will transfer and apply to your major at UT by going online to the Course Applicability System (CAS) website at www.transfer.org, creating an account, and requesting a cross-reference planning guide. Once admitted, you will receive a transfer credit evaluation from an advisor in the college to which you were admitted detailing the transfer of credits. Back to the Top
Does UT offer transfer scholarships? Yes! We do offer transfer scholarships/awards, for both in-state and out-of-state students beginning summer or fall semester. Once admitted you will automatically be considered for admission scholarships, there is not a separate scholarship application. A completed Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) must be on file for scholarship consideration for the Transfer Student Award (see question below). Any additional application requirements are noted in the scholarship/award descriptions. Back to the Top
How and when do I apply for financial aid? The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), can be filed online. Be sure to include The University of Toledo's school code: 003131. The processing takes about 3 weeks so you will want to submit your FAFSA as soon as possible, because awarding becomes more limited as time passes. If you have already submitted the FAFSA or FAFSA renewal form and did not include UT as one of your choices, you must call the federal processor at 800.433.3243 and request a duplicate Student Aid Report (SAR). Forward this SAR to the Office of Student Financial Aid. The best time to file the FAFSA is every January/February for the following academic year. Back to the Top
