Financial Aid

It is important to remember that TSTC students receive a valuable education at a reasonable price. Your cost for just tuition and fees at most private for-profit schools exceeds $28,000. The average investment to get an A.A.S. degree at TSTC is only $6,500. The benefits of investing in a TSTC education are marketable skills, desirable job opportunities, and excellent starting salaries.

Although an education at Texas State Technical College is reasonably priced, financial assistance is available to students. A variety of scholarships are available at each of the TSTC locations including Federal Pell Grant program, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant Program, Federal and Texas Work-Study Program, TEXAS Grant Program, TEXAS II Grant Program, Subsidized and Unsubsidized Stafford Loans, and parent loans. Call the TSTC Marshall Financial Aid Office to determine how we can help you.

TSTC's philosophy is to provide financial assistance to students who would otherwise be unable to pursue a postsecondary education. However, the primary responsibility for paying the cost of a college education lies with the student and his/her family. Funds are available through the Financial Aid Office to supplement those resources. TSTC Financial Aid Office staff are available to assist students with financial aid questions and concerns.

Several types of financial assistance are available to TSTC students. These include grants, which are free money awarded to students with the most financial need and which do not have to be repaid; scholarships; part–time on–campus or community service employment; and loans, which must be repaid.
