GTF 3.0 Scholarship
About the Scholarship Program
The Greater Texas Foundation 3.0 Scholarship Program is funded by the Greater Texas Foundation, a statewide education grant, based in Bryan, Texas. This program is designed to support traditional ECHS students in their transition from high school and community college to UTEP and ensure they are "prepared for, have access to, persist in, and complete postsecondary education." In addition, this program strongly focuses on financial literacy and timely degree completion. Throughout this program, students will achieve this and strengthen their sense of belonging at UTEP through ongoing academic, social, and career opportunities.
