Texas State University announced a new program which will provide $30 million to aid currently enrolled and eligible students with COVID-19 related expenses.
Texas State’s Bobcat Cares programs will provide emergency grants for all students enrolled in summer courses, prorated refunds of certain spring semester charges and a new scholarship to cover tuition and fee costs for the fall 2020 semester.
“For many of our students, the financial insecurity brought on by COVID-19 is an overwhelming burden,” Texas State University President Denise Trauth said. “I want to thank the members of our Texas Congressional delegation for their support of the CARES Act and the help it is providing our students. Our goal is to get this money to them as quickly as possible to help meet their immediate needs so they can focus on continuing their education at Texas State.”
