3. Obtain information about financial aid and scholarships
   Financial aid may be available for full or part-time students. In addition, scholarships may be available for students with a cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 3.0 or better and an Associates degree. For both financial aid and scholarships, it is important to apply to UTA early (Step 2 above). Financial aid and scholarship deadlines may not be the same as admission deadlines so students should check the UTA website. Questions should be directed to Ray Boldreghini at 817.272.3561 or fao@uta.edu.
