Students with adjusted gross income up to $65,000 have tuition covered and additional support is provided to students with adjusted gross income up to $125,000. In addition, a new partnership with the Michael & Susan Dell Foundation starting Fall 2020 will provide all Pell-grant eligible students with support to assist with retention and timely graduation, and all Pell-grant eligible students with an Expected Family Contribution up to $1,000 will receive $5,000/year (for 4 years) scholarship, above the tuition covered through Texas Advance.
