Scholarship for transferring?

If you are in a school, say American, and want to transfer to say Vanderbilt. Lets say you get 15k a semester from American for tuition. Would you be able to get a scholarship if you transferred to Vanderbilt? How does that work?

    I would say no if the American University issues the scholarship.

    It varies school by school, but generally it' not common. Need based aid for transfers is more common than merit aid.

    Actually heard of someone transferring to HYS with $ so I would say yes this is possible.

    HYS do not give out merit based aid, only need based aid, so it's a possibility* that a transfer received need based.

    @rajanjc92 I'd call whatever school you are considering transferring to. There isn't much reliable information on which schools definitely do or don't offer scholarships to their transfers.
