SCHOLARSHIPS

Principia offers scholarships to recognize a range of achievements and contributions. You'll automatically be considered for scholarships based on information provided in your admissions application.

TRANSFERRING CREDITS

We’ll transfer as much credit as possible for the work you’ve already completed. The specifics are different for each student, so we won’t know for sure until we see your transcript. Generally, courses taken at other fully accredited colleges and universities are accepted for credit provided they parallel courses available at Principia and were completed with a grade of C– or higher. You can contact the Registrar’s Office to determine exactly what transfer credits would be accepted.
