Graduate College Merit Fellowship Must be Nominated - Incoming Students Only

Texas State Graduate Merit Fellowships
The Graduate College’s Texas State Graduate Merit Fellowships are prestigious awards intended for use in recruiting master’s students of the highest quality to Texas State University.  The Texas State Graduate Merit Fellowship provides $2,500 to new master’s students for their first academic year of study (paid in early September, January, and June).   These fellowships can be combined with graduate assistantships or departmental scholarships to create an attractive financial aid package for top quality applicants.   Graduate advisors are encouraged to identify and nominate eligible applicants (prospective students cannot apply directly).
