The Office of Student Financial Aid sets priority deadlines each semester for students to apply for aid. Please keep in mind that funding is limited.  

Financial aid is available and offered on a first-come, first-served basis, so students who complete and submit the FAFSA online (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) on or before the priority deadline are guaranteed to be considered first for aid and awards. Also, applying and submitting your FAFSA application before your orientation session will allow you to take care of any additional or last minute financial aid issues while you are on campus for orientation.

Transfer students must cancel any aid they were receiving at any previous institution(s) before aid can be awarded from Texas A&M University-Kingsville. Once aid has been canceled from previous institutions, transfer students should submit the FAFSA application to our Office of Student Financial Aid using our school code (003639).

To learn more about how to apply for FAFSA and for other important information regarding financial aid, please visit the Office of Student Financial Aid website.

 

All new students are required to submit proof of bacterial meningitis vaccination. Students will not be permitted to attend orientation or register for classes unless valid documentation is on file with Student Health and Wellness. Learn more about the law by visiting the Bacterial Meningitis Requirements. Valid vaccination records, affidavits or certificates should be uploaded to Med+Proctor prior to your orientation session:

Who is Affected? First-time Freshmen, Transfer Students and Returning Students under the age of 22 by the first day of the start of the semester

What is Needed? Valid proof of an initial bacterial meningitis vaccination or booster dose during the five-year period preceding, and at least 10 days prior to, the first class day of the first semester in which the student initially enrolls at an institution or valid proof of exemption

Why is it Needed? A student cannot register for classes, attend on-campus classes or live on campus without valid proof of vaccination or exemption on file with the Texas A&M University-Kingsville Student Health and Wellness Office 

When Does it Need to Be Submitted? Students should submit proof of their vaccination prior to their orientation session

Apply for on-campus housing and submit your deposit by May 1 to receive priority for residence hall and roommate preferences. Space fills quickly, and most orientation sessions occur after the deadline. Staff will be available at orientation to answer questions, but early application ensures the best chance of placement by the end of June.

For additional on-campus housing information or to apply, please visit the University Housing and Residence Life website.

Students are required to sign a Financial Responsibility Agreement and Bacterial Meningitis Vaccination Acknowledgement, which will automatically appear when a student logs on to their Blue and Gold account. Students will not be able to register for courses without first agreeing to the conditions of these agreements. Once signed, the agreements will no longer appear in the student’s account.

To find out more about guaranteed tuition and JPaks, visit the Business Office website.

Be sure to submit your final high school transcript complete with any advanced placement scores and official college or university transcripts (dual enrollment or college credits). Official admission test scores (ACT and/or SAT) should also be submitted prior to your orientation session, which can be sent using our school codes (SAT 6822, ACT 4212).

Advanced Placement Scores: Please bring updated scores with you if you have recently taken any advanced placement exams and the scores were not included on your high school transcript. Official scores must be presented in a sealed envelope to the Office of Admission.

College/University Transcript(s): For proper advising during your session, please bring your updated/official transcript(s) complete with all dual enrollment/college credits earned. Official transcripts must be presented in a sealed envelope to the Office of Admission.

In order to be advised correctly, we must have your TSI scores on file before you attend orientation. You can submit your scores to the above address. 

Transcripts and scores can be sent to the Texas A&M-Kingsville Office of Admission by mail, courier, in person or fax (only for TSI scores):
