Fifth through ninth graders who are enrolled in the Texas Tuition Promise Fund® and whose families have an annual income of $100,000 or less may apply now through Dec. 31, 2019, for Match the Promise scholarships.*

The Texas Match the Promise Foundation℠ encourages families to save for college by supplementing their contributions to the Texas Tuition Promise Fund — the state’s prepaid college tuition plan. Families who do not currently have a Promise Fund account can find information about establishing one at our website.

Approved recipients can receive matching scholarships of tuition units worth up to $1,000 at today’s prices, and top-scoring recipients can also receive a one-time grant of tuition units worth $2,000 at today’s prices. These scholarship tuition units can be used at most Texas public colleges and universities.

To be considered for a scholarship, students must write a career essay and meet other requirements. If approved, recipients will have until Aug. 31, 2020, to meet the contribution requirement of the scholarship program by contributing a minimum of $100 to the student’s Promise Fund account.

Find application materials and more information online at MatchThePromise.org. You can also contact us via email or at 800-531-5441, ext. 3-7570, for additional information.

*Residency restrictions, eligibility criteria and minimum contribution requirements apply.
