PASS

PICOS will be taking the place of PASS temporarily, please click on PICOS for further information into this new program.

The Program to Acclimate Students to Scholastics (PASS) is designed to serve as a Summer Intensive Program to ease the transition from high school into University life for those students who have been selected to participate in the PICOS Program.  The students eligible must be granted regular admission status and have been selected to the PICOS Program, attend Summer II 2009,  Texan Orientation, & Duck Camp.  PASS provides up to $2,500 for Summer II tuition, fees, room & board as recommended by the PASS committee.  The students’ books will be provided as part of the scholarship and they will have to be returned to Student Success Programs at the conclusion of the Summer II session.  For Fall 2009, the applicants must be eligible for full admission to Tarleton State University, and participate in the PICOS Residential College Program which includes a DGS 101 course, the University Seminar class and full-time coursework determined by the PICOS Director.

Priority consideration will be given to those students who:

  • Have  been selected as participants of the Tarleton State University PICOS Program
  • Complete the FAFSA and qualify for Pell grant support
  • Are first-generation students, for whom neither parent or legal guardian have attended college
  • Have not enrolled in college level course work since high school graduation
