This year’s enrollment period for the Texas Tuition Promise Fund started today and continues through February 29 of next year.

Families enrolled in the Texas Tuition Promise Fund purchase prepaid ‘units’ that can be used for undergraduate tuition and fees at Texas public colleges and universities.  There are three types of ‘units’ that can be purchased and they range in price from $20 to $112 per unit.

Under the current plan, 100 units equals one academic year consisting of 30 semester hours of tuition and fees. For more information about the TTPF go online to Texas Tuition Promise Fund dot com
