How to find scholarships in Texas for international students?

Does anyone know about scholarships available for international students in Texas? I'm considering a few universities there and want to plan for financial aid. What are some good resources or tips for finding scholarships in this state?

a year ago

Finding scholarships as an international student can be a bit tricky, but it's certainly not impossible. For the colleges you're considering in Texas, I recommend starting by reviewing their respective financial aid pages. Universities often have scholarships that are specifically allocated for international students. For instance, the University of Houston and the University of Texas at Dallas are known to award merit-based scholarships to international students demonstrating high academic achievement.

In addition to college-specific scholarships, there are also external scholarships that international students can apply for. Services such as Appily can help you search for these scholarships. You simply enter your academic interests, background, and achievements, and the tool will provide a list of scholarships you might qualify for.

It's also beneficial to seek out scholarships from organizations focused on fostering international education or supporting students from your home country. For example, the International Education Financial Aid (IEFA) website has a comprehensive scholarship database for international students.

Lastly, don't forget to pay attention to deadlines. Scholarship deadlines may be different from your application deadlines and can often be quite early. Be sure to start researching and applying for scholarships as soon as possible to maximize your chances.

Best of luck in your search for scholarships—I hope you find this information helpful in your mission to alleviate some of the financial burden associated with university attendance!
