Yes. You are eligible for scholarships as soon as your degree starts. If you are provided with any scholarship, it will be mentioned in your Form I-20 as wYes. The most common problem is that students delay applying and/or do not submit all the required documentation on a timely basis. The Office of Financial Aid states that other common problems are:
- Not checking your UTD email for information or document requests. The University will only send emails to your UTD email address. Please set up your UTD email account to forward mail to your personal email or check your UTD email!
- You are assigned a contact at the Office of Financial Aid office based on your last name. However, it is best to use the general email address and copy your contact to ensure a prompt reply. The general email address is financial-aid@utdallas.edu. See a list of contacts.
It is best to mail in your package rather than to fax or email/scan it.
