Teach for Texas Financial Assistance Program

The THECB administers a loan repayment program for teachers certified in fields in which there is a critical shortage of teachers who take jobs as classroom teachers in those fields in Texas, as well as a grant program to help teachers obtain certification in these fields. Information about this program may be obtained from the Teach For Texas Loan Repayment Assistance Program website or by contacting the Office of Student Teaching in the College of Education and Human Development. Details about this program are found in the Texas Education Code, Subchapter O, Sections 56.352–56.359.
