FINANCIAL SOLUTIONS FOR YOUR EDUCATION

Texas A&M University offers many financial aid options to help you pay for college costs. Within this site you will find information about applying for financial assistance, costs, types of aid and more.

What is financial aid?

Federal, state, institutional, and private fund(s) used to assist eligible students in funding their education. Financial aid can be a combination of scholarships, grants, loans, waivers, and student employment. Scholarships and grants are considered “free money” and the student is not required to repay; however, loans and student employment are considered self-help aid and most loans require repayment when a student becomes enrolled less than half time or graduates. Student employment includes both work-study positions and part-time employment positions, either on- or off- campus.

 Students at Texas A&M University received approximately $490 million in financial assistance through scholarships, grants, loans, waivers, work-study, and on-campus student employment. Approximately 79% of students received some form of financial assistance. All forms of assistance continue to grow as well as the number of students receiving aid.
