Financial aid is a vital resource for many students. Students at Texas State have the opportunity to apply for a wide variety of academic scholarships through the Texas State General Scholarship Application. These awards can assist in defraying the costs associated with the pursuit of a higher education. Scholarships recognize and reward those students who commit themselves to academic excellence and success in a variety of areas. Students may also wish to check with outside resources, such as the Minnie Stevens Piper Foundation or FastWeb for assistance. For more information, the Student Affairs Student Success Team encourages you to contact the Office of Student Financial Aid at 512-245-2315.
