Welcome to TCU’s Scholarship Opportunities homepage!

TCU awards numerous merit-based and need-based scholarships each academic year through the generosity of alumni and private donors. Scholarship award amounts vary and are often awarded based on several factors including, but not limited to, demonstrated academic success, donor-stipulated criteria and financial need. These scholarships are awarded toward tuition and when combined with federal and state aid, may not exceed the value of a full-tuition award.

After completing each of these steps, students can follow their application status on their dashboard by selecting “My Applications” above. All scholarships and grants are subject to conditions as stated in TCU’s Undergraduate Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy. This scholarship is contingent upon your meeting requirements set forth in the policy that can be found in the University catalog. Scholarships are typically one-time, non-renewable. Only students selected to receive a scholarship will receive notification. The notification letter will indicate if the scholarship is eligible for renewal.

Need-based scholarships require completion of the FAFSA (https://studentaid.gov) in order to determine eligibility. Scholarship evaluation begins prior to the FAFSA and TASFA deadlines of May 1st for returning students. Applicants are encouraged to complete the FAFSA or TASFA simultaneously with the General Scholarship Application. Students selected for verification process must submit all “Requested Information” in the portal in order for their General Scholarship Application to be considered complete.

Please Note: The Horned Frog Scholar Search platform is not an exhaustive resource of all TCU scholarships. Students should continue to apply for scholarships advertised by departments and campus organizations. If students have questions concerning the below opportunities, they should contact the Office of Scholarships and Student Financial Aid (finaid@tcu.edu).
