Financial Aid

While the process of applying for financial aid is the same for graduate students as it is for undergraduate students, there are differences in the types of available aid programs and the amount of aid awarded. The grants, student loans, work study program and the Mexican Pilot Program described on this site are specifically for students who are working toward a graduate degree at UT Arlington. To be eligible for these programs:

  1. You must be a US citizen or a permanent resident.
  2. You must be working towards a degree at UT Arlington.
  3. You must be enrolled at least half-time (5 hours for graduate students.)
  4. You must be making satisfactory scholastic progress toward your degree.

Students enrolled in certain certificate programs may also qualify for financial aid. Please contact the Financial Aid Office for more information.

To apply for many types of financial aid, you must first complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. A paper version of the FAFSA is available from many sources, including public libraries and the UT Arlington Financial Aid Office. It usually takes about three weeks for your FAFSA to be processed.
