Students at Texas A&M get a world-class education at a reasonable cost — and graduate with far less college-related debt than their peers at other universities. We make it easy to find the information you need about the cost of attending Texas A&M University. Tuition and fees can vary based on several factors.
Funding an Undergraduate Degree
The Department of Biological and Agricultural Engineering grants scholarships and awards annually to undergraduate students. This funding is made possible by donors and supporters of the department including former students, family and friends, former faculty and industry sponsors. Most recently, Mrs. Vivian P. Follett established a scholarship in the memory of her husband, George H. Follett, Agricultural Engineering graduate, class of ’31. This scholarship will be awarded annually with about one-half of those going to incoming freshmen.
Undergraduate Student Scholarships
Applications are requested and accepted in the Spring semester, to be awarded for the following Fall/Spring.

Funding a Graduate Degree
The Department of Biological and Agricultural Engineering supports graduate students through assistantships, fellowships, and travel and research grants.
Note: Academic admission to the department is separate from financial support. If a student receives financial support from the department or his/her professor, that information will be communicated separately from a student’s academic admission.
Graduate Student Scholarships

Graduate Student Assistantships

Non-Resident Tuition Waiver for Undergraduate and Graduate Students

An eligible non-resident student who holds a competitive academic scholarship of a specified minimum dollar amount for the academic year or summer for which the student is enrolled may be eligible to pay the fees and charges required of Texas residents without regard to the length of time the student has resided in Texas. Undergraduates are eligible up to $4,000 and graduate students $1,000 per an academic year.
