STEPS FOR FUNDING SUCCESS

Types of Aid

Reaching the moment when you cross the commencement stage to accept your diploma is not an easy feat. It takes a support system ­­— a community of advisors, faculty, staff and fellow students. At UNT, we make sure that our Mean Green family is supported by awarding more than $405 million in financial aid, including more than $50 million in scholarships each year. Learn more at financialaid.unt.edu and scholarships.unt.edu.

Step 1: Gather the documents you need for the FAFSA.

Once you complete the FAFSA, you are eligible for gift aid (scholarships and grants) or self-aid (loans and work-study). UNT awards more than $405 million in financial aid and scholarships each year, and we’re here to help you succeed both academically and financially.

Average tuition cost Texas Resident, Undergraduate, Taking Courses On-Campus: $11,280 (Based on taking 15 semester credit hours in fall and spring semesters)

Non-Resident, Undergraduate, Taking Courses On-Campus: $23,550 (Based on taking 15 semester credit hours in fall and spring semesters)

Oklahoma Resident, Undergraduate, Taking Courses On-Campus: $12,780. (Based on taking 15 semester credit hours in fall and spring semesters. Visit ok2.unt.edu for details about our Oklahoma Tuition Rate)

The costs above do not reflect academic fees or differential tuition. To determine cost based on your classification, residency status, academic program/ major and the number of hours you plan on taking, use our tuition calculators at unt.edu/calculators. UNT’S START GREEN, STAY GREEN INITIATIVE CONNECTS YOU WITH RESOURCES THAT CAN HELP YOU THROUGH DIFFICULT FINANCIAL TIMES. LEARN MORE AT UNT.EDU/STAYGREEN.

• There is no cost to submit and process your FAFSA, which helps universities determine your eligibility for financial aid.

Step 2: Submit your FAFSA each year beginning Oct. 1. • Eligibility requirements* and the types of aid available are at fafsa.gov. *Includes eligibility requirements and types of aid available to non-citizens.

If you’re ineligible for the FAFSA because of your immigration status, you may be eligible to complete the Texas Application for State Financial Aid (TASFA). Learn more at collegeforalltexans.com.

Step 3: Check the FAFSA priority application dates you need to know! Jan. 15: Priority app date for fall and spring semesters Aug. 15: Priority app date for the spring semester only Feb. 15: Priority app date for summer only *Summer applicants: In addition to the FAFSA, you will be required to complete the Summer Aid Interest Form, which will be available in early spring at my.unt.edu.

Gift aid does not need to be repaid. These financial options will allow you to fully focus on your studies and hit the ground running once you graduate without having to pay anything back.

We have many resources available to guide you through the loan application and repayment process, and our work-study positions are a great opportunity to engage with peers and gain work experience for your resume.
