Student Financial Aid Programs

The Office of Student Financial Aid programs (SFAP) supports institutions of higher education with the administration of state financial aid programs. We are committed to expanding financial aid knowledge through excellence in customer service, communication, and training for Texas students, borrowers, and institutions of higher education.

The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board will be closed in observance of Thanksgiving from Wednesday, Nov. 25, 2020 through Nov. 27, 2020. During this closure, please send inquiries through CONTACT US (select "Financial Aid Question" as the Contact Reason).
