Financial Aid and Scholarships

The primary purpose of student financial aid is to provide financial assistance to students who would otherwise be unable to pursue a post-secondary education. The basis of financial aid programs is that the main responsibility for meeting college costs lies with the family. Financial aid programs are available to assist students and families who do not have the financial resources to meet the full cost of attendance.

There are many types of financial aid available to students such as:

  • Work-Study Jobs
  • Student Hourly Jobs
  • Scholarships
  • University Scholars
  • Regent’s Student Award
  • Distinguished Achievement
  • Presidential Award
  • Grants
  • Loans

To learn more about available financial aid, please visit the Office of Student Financial Aid and Scholarships website. Scholarship aid is available to qualified students interested in majoring in chemistry. Information about scholarships can be obtained by contacting Dr. Aderemi Oki at (936) 261-3105 or aroki@pvamu.edu.
