UTEP Summer Grant
UTEP has automatically gifted summer grants to select individuals as summer financial aid. To see how it may affect you, please read below.
Hazlewood Recipients
You will not be able to use Hazlewood and the UTEP Summer Grant simultaneously. If you have been gifted a UTEP Summer Grant and wish to use Hazlewood please send a email to mssc@utep.edu with your intent to deny the grant. If you wish to keep the grant and save your Hazlewood hours please complete the declination of benefits form found here and email it to us at mssc@utep.edu. Pell Grants and other types of financial aid will not affect you.
Post 9/11 and Vocational Rehabilitation Recipients
If you are using either the Post 9/11 GI Bill (CH33) or Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment (CH31), receiving the UTEP summer grant will not prevent you from using your benefit, but it will cause a delay of processing disbursements. You may deny the UTEP Summer Grant by emailing our office at mssc@utep.edu. The UTEP Summer Grant will be directly applied to the cost of your tuition for the summer, and WILL NOT be reimbursed to you when the VA disburses it's payment. Pell Grants and other financial aid will still be reimbursed.
