Because transient students are degree-seeking at another university (their “Home Institution”), they are not eligible to receive financial aid directly through Texas Southmost College. Federal regulations require that financial aid be awarded only by the institution where you are officially earning your degree.
Otherwise, TSC offers accommodating, out-of-pocket payment options to get you ready for class:
Submit Immunization Proof
Submit proof of bacterial meningitis immunization. This is required if you are under 22 and your course will be on the TSC campus (unless you were already enrolled for at least one Fall or Spring semester at TSC).
