FYI - the Maroon Award is not considered a competitive scholarship per the handbook posted above. The Maroon is an award given to OOS based on ACT/SAT. Since its not something you have to be reviewed for by committee or available to Texas residents than would not be considered for OOS tuition waiver. But does go away if you get OOS waiver.
“A competitive scholarship must consider both Texas residents and non-residents in the awarding process, not give preference to one or the other, and must be awarded by a University scholarship committee. If you eligibility for one or more scholarships which drops you below the $4,000 minimum for the year, your non-resident tuition waiver will be forfeited and you will be assessed non-resident tuition charges.”
Thanks for the handbook link @chercheur…I did speak to Financial Aide and was told the same thing but I know financial aid can be wrong if talking to someone new. So I wouldn’t ignore anyone’s advice on here since you asked, but research the responses yourself to make sure its accurate.
