How to Apply

The earlier you complete and submit your financial aid application, the better your chances of receiving the maximum aid for which you qualify. To ensure your application is processed without delays, be sure to complete the following steps:

• Submit your FAFSA (UTRGV FAFSA Code: 003599)
