Is TOPS dependent on applicants financial status?

I’m not sure how this will make UT trash when the Ivies have had this policy in place since at least 2005. I think there cut off income is higher as well. Are they trash? Just because your family isn’t very wealthy doesn’t mean you did poorly in high school and are unable to succeed in college.

Ivy League schools are all private.

UT-Austin is not.

In TN, we call it the Hope Scholarship. Paid for by the lottery

In LA we call it the TOPS programs. It’s also funded by the lottery system.



















After legislators are done raping the revenue from the lottery system.

Rice is not suddenly affordable because a family makes 210K per year.

So now Texas can have hundreds of football players going to school for free, essentially on scholarship, busting the NCAA cap on free school for athletes?? Seems a bit unfair?
