Because Texas law prohibits extension of financial credit, you must be prepared to pay all of your semester's education costs at the time of registration. About 1,000 graduate fellowships and assistantships are available each academic year for students in master's or doctoral programs. Students should contact the department chairperson to apply for a graduate fellowship or assistantship. International students in certain fellowship and assistantship programs are allowed to pay in-state tuition. After one year of study, undergraduate students may apply for a broad range of scholarships at UNT through the Student Financial Aid and Scholarships office.
Some scholarships permit the recipient to pay in-state tuition.
You must maintain valid student status per U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Services to be eligible to work.
