Financial Aid:

The Faculty of Nutrition at Texas A&M University has Fellowships, Graduate Research Assistantships and Scholarships available for meritorious graduate student applications. Consideration will be given to all complete applications received by the end of February each year. Applications will be reviewed by the Executive Committee of the Faculty, and individuals meeting the award criteria will be chosen during March of each year. In order to be considered, students must choose Nutrition as the degree sought on the application. Otherwise, the applications may not be received by our office in time to be considered.

Individuals interested in applying for either the Ph.D. or M.S. degree in Nutrition should visit the Faculty's web-site for the Ph.D. or M.S. programs respectively.The faculty listing will also help to learn more about the Faculty involved and their particular research interests. Communication with faculty who are working on an area of interest to the student prior to submitting the application would facilitate acceptance.
