SCHOLARSHIPS

Scholarships are financial assistance that do not require repayment. There are scholarships specifically designed for entering freshmen, transfer students, graduate students, and undergraduate students. Scholarships are awarded based on merit, need, and achievement in academics, athletics, the arts, or other scholarly areas.

It is a federal financial aid policy not to award students in excess of their need or overall cost of attendance (COA). Students who have received aid (including institutional, state, federal and private sources) in excess of their need or COA will have any UTRGV institutional scholarship(s) reduced or cancelled. In addition, the Scholarship and Enrollment Communications Office may substitute a scholarship if a more favorable funding source is identified.
