Below is a list of the majority of awards we have available for students here at Texas A&M University at Galveston. 

For entering students, including freshman, transfers, and graduate students, all required information is included within the Apply Texas application for admissions.  Be sure you complete the scholarship portion of the Apply Texas to ensure you are given full scholarship consideration!

For continuing students, there are a number of scholarships that require an application.  Any awards that require an application are linked to one on this page.  Any award that is not linked, or is linked just to an information page, does not require an application.  Award recipients are primarily selected by a committee of faculty and staff from across the university who utilize applications, GPA information, and department nominations to choose recipients.  In some cases, the selection is made directly by the donor of the scholarship funds.  If you would like additional information on any specific awards, feel free to contact the financial aid office.
