State Aid for Foreign Students

Non-Resident Texas Public Education Grant Funds
Non-Resident Texas Public Education Grant (TPEGNR) is a grant that is generated from funds that non-resident students pay, for tuition and fees at South Texas College; it will only pay for tuition and fees. These funds are very limited and are set aside every year to award non-resident students. Non-Resident students may apply for a TPEGNR award by filling out a Non-Resident TPEG Request Form. These forms may be available each semester and contain detailed information on how to apply and the application deadlines. The forms can be requested at any Student Financial Services office.
