Tusculum University provides a unique service for entering transfer students called an Individualized Graduation Plan (IGP). Your IGP is a tentative academic schedule put together by our Academic Resource Center staff. It will list all the courses that are needed in order to graduate from Tusculum, while giving you an idea of the courses you will be taking each semester.
To receive an IGP, you must submit your transcript(s) to Tusculum (unofficial transcript is okay), with your intended major. These may be sent to your Transfer Admission Coordinator at transfer@tusculum.edu.
At Tusculum, we know whether you’re transferring from a 2-year or another 4-year institution, financial assistance is important.
For Traditional Greeneville-based students, financial assistance comes in the form of need and merit-based scholarships and grants. Accepted students are automatically considered for merit-based scholarships and grants. Eligibility is determined based on your college GPA. To find out what merit-based aid you would be eligible for, visit our Scholarship Calculator.
Adult and Online Studies (AOS) students are eligible to receive need-based aid. Merit awards are not made, as the tuition for these programs has already been greatly reduced. However, members of Phi Theta Kappa will receive the PTK Scholarship.
To receive a Tusculum University offer of financial aid, complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) after October 1. The FAFSA will determine what state/Federal grants and loans are available to you.
The Tusculum FAFSA code is 003527.
