International students financial aid

<p>Hi, does anyone know when the form for 2013-2014 ISFAA will be online? I asked them and they told me it would be online after the 18, but nothing yet</p>

<p>I am also waiting for it. I emailed them on november when they said it will be available on January but nothing done yet.</p>

<p>Just checked the financial aid site and the ISFAA 2013-2014 is now online, it is in the “forms” section</p>

<p>Hey wiiplay4 I just read on the form that incoming students may apply for second year of university and should show funding of at least one year. So do you think I can apply for ISFAA as I am also am incoming student?</p>

<p>yes you can</p>

<p>Thanks alot.</p>

<p>I am not admitted yet as an aggie. Am I able to apply for ISFAA?</p>

<p>I think you can, although they ask you for how many hours you will enroll</p>

<p>I just saw a list of scholarships for incoming students on tamu website:</p>

<p>Academic Scholarships
Academic Achievement Scholarship
Challenge Award
Lechner Scholarship
McFadden Scholarship
President’s Achievement Scholarship
President’s Endowed Scholarship
Corps of Cadets Scholarships
Dependent Children of Texas A&M Scholarship
Faye Leeth Memorial Endowed Scholarship
Honored Service Scholarship
Opportunity Award
University Colleges/Departments Scholarships</p>

<p>I was just thinking if international students are eligible for all of these or only those we selected on ApplyTexas application?</p>

<p>@wiiplay4. Did the ISFAA worked? Have you heard back anything from financial aid department?</p>

<p>It was processed and my financial need calculated, but they still haven’t offered me anything</p>

<p>Yeah , hope for the best.</p>

<p>anybody knows until when tamu offers financial aid?</p>

<p>Unfortunately, there aren’t many internationals here.</p>

<p>yeah you have to take the toefl</p>

<p>You don’t have to take toefl if your SAT reading score is above 500 [Required</a> Documents for International Freshmen](<a href=“http://admissions.tamu.edu/international/gettingin/reqDocuments/freshmen.aspx]Required”>http://admissions.tamu.edu/international/gettingin/reqDocuments/freshmen.aspx) .
I also didn’t took toefl.</p>

<p>Oh right I forgot about the SAT cr score that exempted you from the toefl, took it anyway hehe. My financial aid has been calculated, but I haven’t received anything still. Essay A and B are necessary, essay C is optional but you should do it anyway, it’s a boost I think and is needed for merit scholarships.</p>

<p>I only took the SAT and the toefl. Mmm, I haven’t read about international automatic admissions, I only know about the top 10% for texans. There are only about 5% international students I think, but that is because TAMU is a state college, so they have to admit a big percentage of texas residents. I was in 16% top and 1300 cr + math SAT and they admitted me very quickly.</p>

<p>Yes, you may qualify for academic admit with those stats. If so, you’re automatically in. You can read about it on their admissions web page. Academic admit.</p>
