Texas A&M University Undergraduate Scholarship

Aim and Benefits of Texas A&M University Undergraduate Scholarship

• Annual award amounts pay one-half toward fall and one-half toward spring terms.

Requirements for Texas A&M University Undergraduate Scholarship Qualification

In addition to test scores and class rank, to be eligible for the Presidential Scholarship, you must be an incoming freshman, first-year college student (college credits earned through dual-credit, CLEP, or AP do not disqualify you).

You must meet the following requirements throughout your TTU academic career:

• Maintain cumulative Grade Point Average (GPA) as outlined on the "Terms and Conditions" tab of MyTech (see below).
• Maintain full time enrollment in a Texas Tech academic program and accumulate at least 30 TTU hours per year during the fall, spring, and summer terms.
• Keep addresses, including email address, current on MyTech.
• If requested, write a thank you letter to the scholarship donor when and as directed by the Texas Tech University Scholarship Office.
• Attend required donor events.

* TTU Costa Rica Students are not eligible for scholarships

If a student is eligible to receive one Presidential Scholarship from the TTU Presidential Scholarship program, the Presidential offer replaces any other Presidential scholarship offers. Presidential Merit Scholarships apply only to Texas Tech University programs of study. Texas Tech University scholarships do not transfer to Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center (TTUHSC), Texas Tech Costa Rica, or Angelo State University. The opportunity to be considered for TTUHSC scholarships will be available when you apply for admission to a TTUHSC program of study.

If you take the SAT or ACT again and receive a higher score, or if a super score of two or more test scores would increase your scholarship, you may be eligible for an upgrade.
