As the University of Texas system Board of Regents gets publicity for raising the threshold for free tuition and fees for in state undergraduate students, Texas A&M President Mark Welsh reminded reporters that there is a similar program for Aggie undergraduates.
And before the University of Texas’ announcement, Welsh received a request from the A&M system’s Board of Regents chairman and chancellor to meet about the governor’s executive order that continues freezing undergraduate tuition for the next two years.
The family income ceiling at A&M for free tuition and fees is $60,000. The ceiling at all nine University of Texas system universities rose from $65,000 to $100,000.
