responsibilities while earning their degree.

and wellness services and programs for first-generation students.

school or continuing your education after a break, we have the resources
to help you succeed.
Our welcoming environment is accompanied by innovative, highquality
academic programs that challenge our students and provide

STATE & FEDERAL FINANCIAL AID
Your first step toward paying for college is completing the Free Application
for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) online (fafsa.gov) or the Texas Application
for State Financial Aid (TASFA). The FAFSA/TAFSA can be completed starting
October 1. The sooner you complete it the better UNT Dallas can meet your
financial need. Learn more about the scholarships, grants, loans and Federal
Work Study options available at finaid.untdallas.edu/scholarships.
UNT Dallas offers a wide array of federal, state and institutional financial aid
programs to help students at all economic levels pay for their education. On
average, a student can cover the cost of tuition without loans.

SEARCH FOR SCHOLARSHIPS
Use our scholarship page to identify additional
opportunities UNT Dallas offers that fit your personal
criteria at finaid.untdallas.edu/scholarships. Most
new student scholarships are merit based and do not
require a separate scholarship application. If you meet
the scholarship criteria when you are admitted to the
university, you will be automatically considered.
Note: December 1st is the UNT Dallas date to be admitted and
qualify for priority merit scholarships. UNT Dallas will continue
to award scholarships after the priority date; however, this
automatic process does not guarantee that you will receive a
scholarship, as funding is limited.
DALLAS COUNTY PROMISE AND
TARRANT TO AND THROUGH
UNT Dallas is proud to make a bachelor’s degree
attainable as partners with Dallas County Promise
and Tarrant To and Through (T3). Both innovative
programs offer last-dollar scholarship funding that
aims to send graduating seniors in Dallas and Tarrant
Counties to college for free.

and success program for DREAMers. As the only
