Finanical Aid for Texas Students Think you can t afford college? Think again. Every year, Texas college students receive billions of dollars in financial aid. Ayuda económica para los estudiantes en Texas Cada año, en Texas se ofrecen miles de millones de dólares de en ayuda económica a estudiantes de educación superior. Piensas que los estudios superiores están fuera de tu alcance? Piénsalo de nuevo.

In Texas, average tuition and fees for a 15-hour semester range from $747 at a public community college to $6,695 at an independent university. Earning a college degree may not cost as much as you think. Don t think you can afford to go to college? With the right planning, a college education is within reach for every Texan. A college degree is the best investment you can make in your future. You will have more job opportunities and, over your lifetime, earn about twice as much money as you would have earned with only a high school diploma. The cost of college depends on where you go, where you live, the degree you earn, and how long it takes you to complete your degree. In Texas, average tuition and fees for a 15-hour semester range from $747 at a public community college to $6,695 at an independent or private college or university.

Community colleges are usually less expensive than universities. You can also save money living at home and commuting to school. Tips for Reducing College Costs Be prepared to take college-level courses. Get ready for college while in high school. Take the Recommended High School Program or the Distinguished Achievement Program. If you are not prepared for college-level work, you must pay to take developmental education courses before enrolling in courses for your degree. Earn your degree or certificate as soon as you can. Earn college credit in high school. With TechPrep, Dual or Concurrent Enrollment, Advanced Placement (AP), and International Baccalaureate (IB) courses and/or exams, you can earn college credit for courses you take in high school. Average Cost to Attend Higher Education Institutions in Texas, Fall and Spring Semesters (2006-2007) Get college credit for what you already know by taking a College- Level Examination Program (CLEP) exam. Plan for your college experience. Explore career options early to avoid changing majors and spending more time in college. Start at a community college. Tuition and fees are less than at universities. Many students also save money by living at home while they attend community college. Paying for College Families are expected to pay what they can toward their children s education. Financial aid is available to fill the gap between the family s resources and the cost of attendance. Financial Aid Financial aid refers to money provided by the government, college, or private sources to help people pay for college. Resident Tuition Mandatory Fees Books & Supplies Room & Board Transportation Personal Expenses Est. Cost of Attendance Types of Financial Aid Public Universities $4,539 $1,326 $1,012 $6,645 $1,714 $1,946 $17,182 Grants and Scholarships: do not have to be paid back. Scholarships are usually Public Health Related Institutions Public Community Colleges $3,126 $1,168 $1,393 $550 $1,359 $10,562 $2,651 $3,743 $22,833 $1,065 $5,313 $1,662 $1,670 $11,428 awarded based on grades or some special talent; grants are usually awarded based on financial need. Loans: borrowed funds that must be paid back, usually with interest. Public State Colleges Public Technical Colleges Independent Institutions $2,000 $2,708 $849 $1,030 $754 $3,150 $2,470 $1,798 $11,021 $1,047 $6,417 $2,124 $2,289 $15,616 $15,003 $662 $932 $5,273 $1,091 $1,461 $24,422 SOURCE: Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board Costs are for residents of Texas or the community college district who are single without dependents, living off campus nine months, taking 15 credit hours fall and spring semesters. NOTE: Tuition and fee rates for the public universities are listed as they were reported by the institutions and are subject to change. Loan Forgiveness Programs: borrowed funds that usually must be repaid through some type of service like working as a teacher, nurse or doctor, or by finishing the degree in a set amount of time. Tuition/Fee Exemptions: programs that lower the tuition and/or fee charges for special populations attending public colleges and universities.

Waivers: programs that allow some out-of-state students to attend Texas public colleges and universities and pay the lower, in-state tuition rate. Work-Study: part-time jobs arranged through colleges and universities, and located on or near campus. Applying for Financial Aid The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is the only form you need to fill out in order to apply for most financial aid, except scholarships. Scholarships are awarded to students for high grades or special talents. You must apply for them separately. You do not have to pay someone to find out about scholarships lots of companies do this for free. You will find a list of organizations that help students free-of-charge in this brochure. 1. To apply for aid other than scholarships, complete and submit the FAFSA as soon as possible after January 1. The earlier your form is received the better your chances of receiving funds. You will need to have income tax information for you and your parents available to complete the form. You will find the FAFSA at www.fafsa.ed.gov or you can get a copy from your high school counselor, any college or university financial aid office, or by calling 1-888-311-8881. It will be processed more quickly if you submit it online (FAFSA on the Web). The section at www.fafsa.ed.gov entitled Before Beginning a FAFSA has a lot of helpful information. 2. You will receive a Student Aid Report (SAR) within four to six weeks of mailing a FAFSA, or within two to four weeks of completing FAFSA on the Web, sooner if you provide an email address. The SAR will indicate the amount of money the system believes your family can afford to pay for college (your Expected Family Contribution [EFC]) and your eligibility for a Pell Grant. Read the report carefully. If corrections are needed, just follow the directions. Don t stop the application process if the SAR says you do not qualify for a Pell grant. There are many other types of aid you still might get. Complete the application process. Students who are Texas residents but not U.S. citizens may be eligible for state financial aid. 3. The SAR is sent to colleges and universities that you list on the FAFSA. The financial aid office at each institution will use this information to calculate your financial need. Financial need is the difference between your EFC and the average cost of attending that institution which includes tuition and fees, books and supplies, and living expenses. Financial Need = Cost of Attendance EFC 4. The financial aid office will figure out the programs for which you may qualify for and develop a financial aid package. 5. You will receive an award letter explaining the package, or the amounts and type of aid that institution will offer you. You may accept part or all of the aid, but you need to let the college or university know of your decision. Institutions set their own deadlines. Make sure you complete and submit your FAFSA in time for the results to be at your institution by the college s or university s Priority Application Deadline. If you apply late, some of the aid will already be gone. The school will only be able to offer you what is left over. About Loans Students and families use loans to spread the cost of college over a long period of time the same way they pay for things like homes and cars. Ask the financial aid office at the college you plan to attend about how its loan process works. The loans with the lowest interest are those targeted to financially needy students. In fact, some loans don t have to be paid back if the student earns a bachelor s degree in four years or less, or performs certain

In 2004-2005, about 50 percent of students enrolled in Texas public colleges and universities received financial aid. work or services after completing college. Other loans are available to students preparing for certain careers, like those in medicine and allied health. Exemptions and Waivers The state uses exemptions to lower some students tuition and fee charges, and waivers to reduce college tuition and fees for out-of-state students. For more information, contact the Admissions Office or the Registrar s Office at the public college or university you plan to attend or go to www.collegefortexans.com, click on Paying for College, and then on Types of Financial Aid. Tax Advantages College students and their families can reduce their federal income taxes through the following programs. For more information, contact a tax preparer, look up Publication 970 at www.irs.gov, or call the IRS at 1-800-827-1040. Receive a tax credit of up to $1,500 per year with the federal Hope Tax Credit, or $2,000 per year with the federal Lifetime Learning Tax Credit. Deduct up to $3,000 per year for tuition and fees, and up to $2,500 per year for interest paid on educational loans. College Savings Plan The Texas 529 College Savings Plan or Tomorrow s College Investment Plan is a tax-free program that allows families to save money to pay for college expenses. There are no eligibility, income or age restrictions on account owners or beneficiaries. There are limits to the amount of money you can save in this way. For more information, call 1-800-445-GRAD (1-800-445-4723) or visit www. texastomorrowfunds.org. Tuition Rebate for Undergraduate Students If you did not take any college courses before fall 1997 and complete a bachelor s degree having attempted no more than 3 semester credit hours beyond the requirements of your degree, you may be able to claim a tuition rebate of up to $1,000. You must apply for the tuition rebate before you receive your bachelor s degree. See your Business Office or Financial Aid Office for an application and more information. Things to Remember 1. The FAFSA is the only application you need to complete for most financial aid. If you re not a U.S. citizen, check with the college you plan to attend. You can t get federal aid, but you might be able to receive state financial aid. The college may have you complete the paper FAFSA or an alternative aid application. 2. Colleges and universities must consider scholarships you bring with you to the school when calculating the amount of aid you will receive. 3. Most financial aid is based on need. Your Expected Family Contribution (EFC) is the same whatever school you go to, but your financial need will be higher or lower depending upon the cost of the institution you attend. 4. Remember that you need to reapply for financial aid each year. 5. Each college and university sets its own deadlines for applying for financial aid. Contact all institutions you d like to attend to learn about their deadlines. 6. This is the most important investment you can make in your future. Take time to learn about your options before you make any decisions. Financial aid professionals at the institutions can help you find ways to pay for your education.
