SAT, GPA and award value

Can an international freshman receive it?
The official 2026–27 guide states that UT Tyler awards merit scholarships to incoming international students and expressly identifies the GPA rule for international applicants.
Extra conditions and deadlines
Applicants must submit the scholarship application and required records by the published December 1 deadline. The SAT route is optional and other rank/GPA conditions may qualify.
A qualifying score is not an award offer. Confirm admission, transcript conversion, official-score rules, funding availability and renewal conditions with the university.
