A Four-Year Degree is Within Reach
The UD Sinclair Academy offers an affordable way to earn a four-year degree. The most common reason why students join the UD Sinclair Academy is the financial savings.
As a member of the Academy you'll benefit from:
- Affordable Sinclair tuition — which is among the lowest in the state — while enrolled at Sinclair College.
- A transparent tuition offer that outlines your costs for each year at UD, with guaranteed net tuition.
Financial Aid Options
The Academy is made even more affordable through:
- Automatic consideration for scholarships:
- First-year students are eligible for a merit scholarship worth up to $33,000 each year at UD.
- Transfer students are considered for a transfer scholarship worth $17,000-$27,000 per year based on their combined cumulative college GPA
- A $3,000 scholarship for members of Phi Theta Kappa at the time of admission.
- UD Sinclair Academy students who become members of Phi Theta Kappa after admission and prior to transitioning to UD will be considered for the PTK scholarship on an exception basis as funding is available. This request will be reviewed by University of Dayton's Office of Financial Aid. UDSA students should contact Julia Thompson, Director of Student Success for Community College Partnerships, for more information.
- Students admitted into an academic pathway through the School of Education and Health Science may be eligible for a half-tuition scholarship.
- Eligibility for UD grants, loans and work study experiences designed for Academy students.
Financial Aid Eligibility
In order to be considered for financial aid, file the FAFSA and list both Sinclair and UD to receive the results.
