Providing Financial Aid Counseling to Package Honors Scholarships along with other Types of Financial Aid

The Thomas F. Freeman Honors College has limited scholarships. However, the College works in partnership with other colleges/schools at the University to offer competitive scholarships and financial packages (including a review of the student’s eligibility for restricted and unrestricted Honors College scholarships, funds from private philanthropic organizations, out-of-state waivers, Pell Grants, Texas Grants, General University Scholarships, and loans) to entering high school freshmen who are admitted into the Honors College.

The student must first apply to the University for acceptance. Students must also complete and submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) and list the Texas Southern University (TSU) school code (003642) so that the report can be sent directly to TSU. Once a student is admitted to Texas Southern University (TSU), the Honors College staff will work closely with the student from start to finish to ensure outstanding guidance throughout the process. The following is a guide used in the awarding of Honors scholarships, once a FAFSA has been completed and submitted to TSU. The Office of Financial Assistance will post awards for which students are eligible. A student may receive a Department/College or School scholarship that partners with the Honors College in awarding scholarships.

Students must complete and submit the FAFSA as soon as the FAFSA application opens and must list the Texas Southern University (TSU) school code (003642) so that the report can be sent directly to TSU.

Thomas F. Freeman Honors College Scholarship Levels:

First-time Freshmen:
Scholarships range from $9,000 to $14,000 for 4 years, based on student academic performance, and availability of funds.

Transfer and New Continuing Students:
Scholarships range from $2,000 to $6,000 per year, based on student classification at the time of acceptance.

The student's packet will be received with a holistic approach. While a student's academic performance is very important, we also view evidence of community service, interest in learning about diversity, and recommendation letters from teachers as key indicators of a student's future success at a four-year academic institution.

Requirements to Remain in Good Standing in the Honors College:

Students must maintain both a semester and cumulative grade point average (GPA) of 3.25 to remain a member of the Thomas F. Freeman Honors College. All students must participate fully in the Honors College Program, and show appropriate progress on the Honors Curriculum requirements.

External Scholarships and Internships

The Thomas F. Freeman Honors College is actively seeking scholarships, internships, and postbaccalaureate opportunities for Freeman Scholars. Below is a list of competitive scholarships, some of which are Study Abroad scholarships and grants.

Gilman Scholarship Program

The U.S. Department of State’s Benjamin A. Gilman International Scholarship Program enables students of limited financial means to study or intern abroad, providing them with skills critical to our national security and economic prosperity. To be eligible for the Gilman Program, applicants must be receiving a Federal Pell Grant during the time of application or provide proof that they will be receiving a Pell Grant during the term of their study abroad program or internship. The Institute of International Education has administered the program since its inception in 2001.

The Gilman Program broadens the student population that studies and interns abroad by supporting undergraduates who might not otherwise participate due to financial constraints.  The program aims to encourage students to study and intern in a diverse array of countries or areas and world regions. The program also encourages students to study languages, especially critical need languages (those deemed important to national security). Veterans of military service are encouraged to apply, and preference is given to veterans when other factors are equivalent. By supporting undergraduate students who have high financial need, the program has been successful in supporting students who have been historically underrepresented in education abroad, including but not limited to first-generation college students, ethnic minority students, students with disabilities, students attending HBCUs (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) or other minority-serving institutions, students attending community colleges, rural students, and students coming from U.S. states with less study abroad participation.
