The Frederick L. Culp Physics Scholarship is typically valued at about $1200; preference is given to an outstanding incoming freshman.
The Robert L. Shannon Jr. Physics Scholarship is given to a Junior or Senior physics major and carries a value of approximately $500.
Several other scholarships, for which all physics majors are eligible, are awarded each year. These are typically in the range of $300 - $1000.
A scholarship of particular interest to out-of-state students is the
Honors Scholarship, which pays out-of-state tuition fees. Out-of-state
students having a composite ACT score of 26 or greater may be considered
for this scholarship if they participate in the TTU Honors Program.
Continued support is contingent upon maintaining sufficiently high academic
standing to continue as a member of the Honors Program.
