I'm keen on applying to TCU but I'm unsure about the application fee? Can anyone provide information on the cost and if they provide fee waivers? Cheers!
Sure, I can help with that! The application fee for Texas Christian University (TCU) is $50. If this poses a financial burden, you can request a fee waiver. Fee waivers are typically granted to students who demonstrate financial need.
Financial need can be demonstrated in a few ways: if you are eligible for the Federal Free or Reduced-Price Lunch Program, enrolled in a TRIO or Upward Bound program, or if your family income falls under the Income Eligibility Guidelines.
You can request the fee waiver directly through the Common Application or Coalition Application if you are applying through those platforms. In the Common Application, this is located in the "Profile" section. If you're not using those, get in touch with the admissions office at TCU directly. They'll give you instructions on how to proceed.
Remember, it's always worth asking for a fee waiver if you believe the fee could strain your family's finances. All the best with your application!
