How will finalists be selected?

We have a rigorous application review process that includes analysis and scoring of your grades, participation in advanced courses, extracurricular activities including volunteer work and community service, home responsibilities, and your essay. ISTS reviews and scores all complete and eligible applications. Scholarships are allocated across our Partner Colleges and are awarded to the highest scoring applicants to that college. All applicants agree to accept the decision as final.

Partner Colleges

Do I have to attend one of the Partner Colleges or can I use the scholarship at any college to which I am admitted?

To receive the scholarship, you must attend a Partner College in your state. You must also be eligible for in-state tuition if the college is a public institution. If you are not sure if you are eligible for in-state tuition, you should consult with the appropriate Partner College to determine their eligibility requirements.

Do I have to apply or be admitted to a Partner College to apply for TheDream.US Scholarship?

You must apply for admission to your Partner College before the February 29, 2024, scholarship deadline. Applying to TheDream.US Scholarship Program does not guarantee admission to the Partner College.

Are there any restrictions on the Partner Colleges that I can choose?

Yes, the restrictions are:

Georgia
Cabrini University (located in Philadelphia) - Must attend high school in New Castle County or currently reside in New Castle County.

Illinois
Northern Illinois University -
Our award can only be used at NIU if you are a transfer student from another college.

If I transfer to another Partner College, will I lose my National scholarship?

You will not lose your scholarship. The scholarship will still be transferred as long as you are admitted to and attending one of our Partner Colleges in your state and you have met your scholarship commitments.

Note: Some Partner Colleges require TheDream.US prior approval before you can transfer your award.

Scholarship Award

What is the difference between TheDream.US National Scholarship and TheDream.US Opportunity Scholarship?

TheDream.US National Scholarship Program is for undocumented students who are eligible for in-state tuition at one of our National Partner Colleges. This scholarship is for up to $16,500 for an associate's or up to $33,000 for a bachelor's degree at one of our National Partner Colleges.

TheDream.US Opportunity Scholarship Program is for undocumented students who live in targeted locked-out states where they are either required to pay out-of-state tuition or prohibited from enrolling in the state's colleges and universities altogether. This scholarship is for up to $80,000 in total for a bachelor's degree at one of our Opportunity Partner Colleges.

What will be the actual amount of my National Scholarship Award?

The amount of your annual award will be based on the cost of tuition and fees based on your enrollment status (i.e., number of credits). We will not reduce the amount of your award by other institutional aid, scholarships, or grants, unless your total financial aid package exceeds the estimated cost of attendance based on your living arrangement (e.g., on campus or off campus). In addition, you may receive an additional amount per year for books, supplies, and transportation. Purdue Global University Scholars are not eligible for this stipend.

If I receive a scholarship for an associate degree, do I have to apply again for a scholarship for my bachelor's degree?

No. If you have met your academic and service commitments, you may transfer your scholarship to a 4-year Partner College to which you have been accepted. However, you may not receive more than $33,000 (plus the stipend if applicable) in total from TheDream.US, including the scholarship award you received for your associate degree.

Can the National scholarship be applied toward graduate school?

No. You may only use the scholarship funds for an undergraduate associate or bachelor's degree.

If I receive the National scholarship, do I have to start right away?

No, you have until the Spring term following your receipt of the award to enroll in a Partner College.

What happens if DACA or TPS ends, and I am not able to renew my DACA or TPS authorization?

You will continue to be eligible for the scholarship.

Do I have to reapply each year?

No, but you must renew your scholarship each academic year. You will be asked to confirm your continuing eligibility and provide a copy of your transcript. Note: If you do not renew by the indicated deadline, you will lose your scholarship.

Getting Involved

How can I donate?

Donating to our cause is easy! Simply click our "Donate" link and follow the instructions.

I am a teacher. How can I help?

Reach out as early as possible to all students and encourage them to envision themselves as college material, and if the opportunity arises, let undocumented students know that their immigration status does not prohibit them from attending college.

I am a parent. How can I help?

Let your child know that their immigration status does not prohibit them from going to college. Encourage them to search for scholarships and, if you can, help them complete their scholarship applications. Most importantly, do what you already do: believe in them so they can believe in themselves.

The Joint Admission Medical Program (JAMP), established by the Texas Legislature in 2001, is a uniquely Texan workforce pipeline to medicine program. State leaders knew that many talented students that dreamed of serving others as physician came from a low socioeconomic status and thus faced significant challenges in achieving this goal. JAMP was established to minimize these challenges for highly qualified but economically disadvantaged Texas resident students by providing them the financial support and mentoring needed to be successful.

Funded through the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, JAMP is a unique partnership between thirteen Texas medical schools and sixty-eight public and private four-year undergraduate institutions.

Since 2001, JAMP has been helping Texas students achieve their dreams with financial and academic support to help them get to one of the participating thirteen medical schools.

FIRST TIME COLLEGE STUDENTS

Red Raider Guarantee FAQs

Is there a separate application for the RRG?

No. Once the student files the FAFSA/TASFA, the Financial Aid Office will identify all eligible students.

If I am eligible for the RRG, will I continue to receive the RRG for the remaining semesters?

The Financial Aid Office will identify all eligible recipients. Eligible recipients need only complete the FAFSA/TASFA for each academic year and meet program guidelines.

Do courses taken in high school or CLEP courses affect my eligibility for RRG?

No. Credits taken as a non-regular college student will not count against the first-time student designation.

Are there academic requirements to remain eligible for RRG?

Yes. Students must meet the institution's satisfactory academic progress (SAP) requirements. The SAP requirements are the same for most other financial aid programs (excluding TEXAS Grant and B-On Time Loan).

RRG is based on eligibility not on dependency status.

Costs for full-time tuition and fees during the fall and spring semesters.

Food and housing based on the cost of a standard double occupancy residence hall room and silver meal plan.

Estimated cost of books and course materials. Students with documented needs for course materials in excess of this standard amount should contact the Office of Financial Aid for additional funds.

Note: Because Work-Study is part of your award and you will be paid every two weeks, you might want to consider a Short Term Loan to cover the purchase of books at the beginning of the semester. You can repay the loan out of your earnings.

Please note that the Spartan Advantage Program is intended to supplement grant funds that you receive from federal, state, MSU, or private sources, so this award will be reduced if you receive other grant funds after the initial award has been made.

Texas Advance Commitment FAQs

What is the Texas Advance Commitment?

First implemented in 2018, the Texas Advance Commitment is UT Austin's commitment to making a UT education even more affordable, more transparent, and understandable for Texas students and families from middle- and low-income backgrounds who have financial need. Texas Advance Commitment was expanded in Fall 2020 to increase income levels served through a new endowment created by The University of Texas System Board of Regents. Under the expansion, Texas residents entering UT Austin as freshmen or transfer students as well as continuing students with family adjusted gross incomes (AGIs) of up to $65,000 will have tuition covered with gift monies up to tuition. Students with family AGIs between $65,000 and $125,000 will receive some financial assistance to help offset the cost of their tuition at UT Austin.

Who is eligible for the Texas Advance Commitment?

Students meeting the following criteria are eligible for Texas Advance Commitment funding:

Texas resident undergraduates who entered UT Austin in fall 2018 or later pursuing their first degree.

Students who enter as freshmen can receive funding for up to four years or the length of their program. Transfer students can receive funding for up to three years or the length or their program.

Have a family adjusted gross income (AGI) between $0-125,000 and show financial need as determined by the FAFSA or TASFA.

Students with an AGI of up to $65,000 with need will receive support to cover their tuition

Students with an AGI between $65,000 and $125,000 will receive tuition support

How does the Texas Advance Commitment program work?

For students with a family AGI of up to $65,000 your tuition will be covered first by your Federal and State grants (Pell, FSEOG and Texas Grant) If your eligibility for these programs does not cover the full cost of your tuition, UT Austin will make up the difference with institutional grants or scholarships.

For eligible undergraduate or first time in college transfer students, grants and scholarships are used first to cover the costs of tuition. If needed, university funds are added to either cover tuition or provide financial assistance.

The Texas Advanced Commitment applies to tuition; however, there are additional grant, scholarship, work-study and loan funds available to help with the other costs of education, like books and room and board. Students in the Texas Advanced Commitment program can receive outside scholarships beyond the cost of tuition up to financial need, as determined by the FAFSA or TASFA.

How do I apply?

There is no separate application. Admitted students who submit either the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) or the TASFA (Texas Application for State Financial Aid) and have a complete financial aid file will automatically be considered for financial aid assistance under the Texas Advance Commitment.

Can I qualify if my family's AGI is more than $125k?

The Texas Advance Commitment is designed for Texas resident students who meet all the eligibility requirements. Only students who meet all of the Texas Advance Commitment requirements with family AGIs of up to $125,000 will be eligible to receive financial assistance.

Are these awards renewable?

Awards will be based on an annual review of a student's FAFSA or TASFA, full-time student status, having financial need, maintaining Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) and pursuit of a first undergraduate degree.

How can I renew my Texas Advance Commitment awards?

Texas Advance Commitment Awards can be renewed based on the following:

Continuing students who are making satisfactory academic progress (2.0 GPA and completed 67% of hours attempted)

Students who entered UT Austin in between Fall 2018 to Fall 2020 and were eligible for Texas Advance Commitment based on their entering year FAFSA data will continue to be considered for eligibility for up to four years.

Students who became eligible after their first year at UT for Texas Advance Commitment funding under the expanded income guidelines in 2020 and students who enter UT Austin in fall of 2021 and beyond will be evaluated annually using that year's FAFSA or TASFA data to determine continued eligibility for funding.

Will I see Texas Advance Commitment on my Financial Aid Notification (FAN)?

No, you will not see the words "Texas Advance Commitment" on your financial aid notification. All sources of tuition funding, including grant and scholarship assistance, meet the commitment. For example, if an eligible student receives a federal Pell grant and/or a Texas Grant, these resources are applied first. The university then covers the gap to tuition for eligible students with family AGIs of up to $65,000 and provides some tuition assistance for those eligible students with family AGIs of up to $125,000.

Is Texas Advance Commitment available for summer?

No. Currently Texas Advance Commitment is not awarded during the summer term. If new or transfer students are entering UT Austin in the summer and are eligible for Texas Advance Commitment funds, they will receive those funds beginning in the following fall semester.

How many hours do I need to be enrolled at UT to be eligible for the Texas Advance Commitment?

For eligible students with AGIs of up to $65,000, your financial assistance will be adjusted based on your enrollment (full-time or part-time) as of the 12th class day. Your Texas Advance Commitment award will be equal to the cost of the applicable tuition.

Students with AGIs between $65,000 and $125,000 will have funds adjusted according to program rules of the funding the student received.

When will I see the scholarship on my financial aid award?

The University automatically identifies students for the on-campus housing scholarship based on the above criteria and will notify you directly via email if you are eligible.

Beginning in mid-July, the scholarship will appear as an update to your Financial Aid Notification (FAN) in Check Aid Status Here (CASH) for the 2023-24 academic year.

On-campus Housing Scholarship

The University of Texas at Austin launched a new, pilot scholarship program for students who receive tuition support through Texas Advance Commitment and live in on-campus housing at Dobie Twenty21 or one of our 15 residence halls . The scholarship was created to help lessen on-campus housing costs for students and increase their access to the many benefits of living on the Forty Acres that contribute to retention and success.

Do I need to apply for the on-campus housing scholarship?

No, you do not need to apply. To be eligible for a 2023-24 on-campus housing scholarship, a student must meet both of the criteria:

Receive tuition coverage or support through Texas Advance Commitment for the 2023-24 academic year

Have a signed contract for on-campus housing for the upcoming year, specifically at Dobie Twenty21 or one of our 15 residence halls

How much is the scholarship?

Students who receive full tuition coverage through Texas Advance Commitment for the 2023-24 academic year will receive $1,800 to help offset the costs of housing. This will appear as a $900 per term scholarship on your financial aid award in July. The scholarship will be disbursed in two parts, with half of the scholarship amount being disbursed at the start of the fall term and half being disbursed at the start of the spring term.

Students who receive partial tuition support through Texas Advance Commitment for the 2023-24 academic year will receive $900 to help offset the cost of housing. This will appear as a $450 per term scholarship on your financial aid award in July. It will be disbursed in two parts, with half of the scholarship amount being disbursed at the start of the fall term and half being disbursed at the start of the spring term.

When will I receive my on-campus housing scholarship?

The scholarship will be disbursed in two parts for the 2023-24 academic year, with half of the scholarship amount being disbursed at the start of the Fall 2023 term, and the other half being disbursed at the start of the Spring 2024 term.

Can I still apply for on-campus housing and be eligible for the scholarship?

Students can apply in the housing portal for on-campus housing in our residence halls and Dobie Twenty21. University Housing and Dining began offering housing contracts in March and prioritizes first-time freshmen in contract offers. The contracting process continues until all spaces are contracted. Please note that while we work to accommodate housing requests for all students who want to live in on-campus housing, we cannot guarantee housing to all that apply based on room availability and the timing of your application.

The purpose of the Hazlewood Exemption (Hazlewood Act) is to provide an education benefit to honorably discharged or separated Texas veterans and to eligible dependent children and spouses of Texas veterans.

Effective Fall 2014, SB 1210 (83rd Texas Legislative, Regular Session) requires students to meet the GPA and excessive hour requirement of TCC's satisfactory academic progress (SAP) in a degree or certificate program determined by our financial aid policy. This requirement does not apply to the dependent child or spouse of a Texas Veteran who is MIA, KIA or died as a result of service.

For more information on the Hazlewood Act, visit the Texas Veterans Commission.

How to Apply for Hazlewood Exemption

1. Find out if you, your spouse, or your children meet eligibility requirements.

Award Amount

Eligible veterans, their children and their spouses may receive an exemption from the payment of all tuition, dues, fees and other required charges, including fees for correspondence courses, but excluding deposit fees, student service fees and any fees or charges for books, lodging, board or clothing for up to 150 semester credit hours.

The Hazlewood Act Exemption does not cover the fees for extraordinary costs associated with the Professional Pilot Program.

Awards may not be used to pay tuition and relevant fees for continuing education classes unless the college receives state tax support for the classes.
