Episode Details

Texas is making significant strides to increase college enrollment post-high school, with Governor Abbott ordering public universities to freeze tuition until 2027. The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board secured $320 million for guaranteed aid, benefiting the top 25% of needy seniors. State-funded grants like the TEXAS Grant and Texas Education Opportunity Grant, along with federal Pell Grants, provide financial assistance. Institutions like Austin Community College and Alamo Colleges offer free tuition pilots, while the UT System provides free tuition for undergrads from low-income families. FAFSA or TASFA applications are crucial for accessing these opportunities, with private groups like Texas Exes adding more scholarships.
