To apply for student financial aid, you'll need to complete either the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or the Texas Application for State Financial Aid (TASFA). The FAFSA and TASFA provide the information the financial aid office at your college or university needs to determine your financial need for federal and state programs, including the TEXAS Grant. To find out which application you should use, FAFSA or TASFA, take our quick survey.
