Who Can Apply?
Only continuing undergraduate business students are eligible to apply. You are a continuing student if you
are enrolled in the McCombs School of Business during the 2008-2009 academic year and will be enrolled as an
undergraduate in the McCombs School of Business in the 2009-2010 academic year. You may apply if you were
previously a business student and are currently sitting out of school, but will be readmitted to the McCombs
School of Business by the fall of 2009.
Ineligible Students: If you will be a 5th year student in the BBA/MPA integrated approach enrolled in the Graduate School of Business in
2009-2010, you are not eligible to apply for undergraduate awards, but may apply for scholarships through
the Graduate School and the Accounting Department. If you are currently enrolled in another college and plan
to apply to transfer to the McCombs School of Business for fall 2009, you are not eligible to apply for

The Importance of Establishing Financial Need
Some awards require that recipients show documented financial need. If you wish to be considered for such
awards, you must also file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) with the appropriate federal
processing office. In order to receive
priority consideration, please complete this
application before March 31. Forms are available in the UT Office of Student Financial Services.
Note to International Students: Although you are not eligible by federal law to file the FAFSA, you must
provide documentation of financial status similar to that required for the FAFSA, if you wish to be
considered for need-based McCombs awards. Such documentation must include official income documentation (tax
return) from your family or sponsor in your home country.
