Texas State offers a variety of academic scholarships to continuing, certification and second bachelor students. These scholarships are awarded competitively and require the submission of a Texas State Scholarship Application. Awards are based on the overall strength of your scholarship application. To apply for a scholarship, you must complete and submit a Texas State Scholarship Application no later than March 1, 2010. If you are a nonresident receiving a scholarship of at least $1,000 per year through this scholarship application process, you also qualify to pay the in-state tuition rate.
