Scholarships

The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley offers a variety of scholarships through the University Scholarship Committee and departmental committees. These scholarships are based on various prerequisites and are intended to recognize students for their outstanding academic accomplishments and future potential. These awards are made possible through the generosity of local as well as national business firms, organizations, individuals and University endowed funds.

The majority of the scholarships are not automatically renewed. Students must apply each year for continued consideration. Although most awards are restricted to U.S. citizens and permanent residents of the United States, some are open to international students, who are encouraged to apply.

For a complete list of scholarships, visit http://www.utrgv.edu/scholarships to view the available scholarships. To be considered for scholarships at UTRGV, students must complete the UTRGV Scholarship application online at www.utrgv.edu/applyscholarships. The scholarship process is very competitive, students are encouraged to apply early and make sure their applications are submitted and complete. Important: It is UTRGV’s policy not to award institutional scholarships to students who have received aid (including institutional, state, federal and private sources) in excess of their cost of attendance. If your cost of attendance is exceeded, any UTRGV scholarship(s) may be reduced or cancelled.
