Tuition/Cost
Discover the program cost difference between a private institute and a
state-supported technical college! At Texas State Technical College Harlingen,
our students receive a valuable education at an affordable price!
A college education is one of the most important investments a person can
make. TSTC Harlingen is committed to providing access to everyone who can
benefit from such an education. The current tuition cost per semester hour for
a Texas resident is $65.
The cost of attending TSTC Harlingen varies depending
on a variety of factors, including a student's residency status, whether or not
the student lives on campus, the program of study and any other services that
the student may need. Financial Aid offers several types of aid that may be
available to help pay these costs. While it is not intended to completely fund
an education, this assistance can help provide the financial support needed for
tuition, housing, books and other educational items.
