Financial Aid

West Texas A&M University is required by the United States Department of Education to collect information and provide to Congress a report on financial and statistical information on men’s and women’s collegiate sports. The Equity in Athletics Disclosure Act is designed to make current and prospective students aware of the school’s commitment to providing equitable athletic opportunities for its men and women students. The Department of Education's EADA website provides data in a convenient searchable form.

The Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act (SDFSCA) requires institutions of higher education to establish programs that prevent violence in and around schools, address unlawful possession, use, or distribution of alcohol and illicit drugs, involve parents and communities, and coordinate with state and federal programs to foster safe and drug-free learning environments to promote student academic achievement.

West Texas A&M University conducts a Biennial Review of our participation in the Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act.

• Alcohol and other drug information is available in the Campus Security and Fire Safety Report
• Notice of Federal Student Financial Aid Penalties for Drug Law Violations

West Texas A&M University and the Office of Financial Aid are committed to conducting business in an ethical manner and with the highest level of integrity. As part of our commitment, all employees receive training on an annual basis with regard to the code of conduct.

Code of Conduct  - Conflict of Interest Policy

September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day (Constitution Day). This day commemorates the September 17, 1787, signing of the United States Constitution. Written in 1787, ratified in 1788, and in operation since 1789, the United States Constitution is the world's longest surviving written charter of government. Its first three words –– "We the People" –– affirm that the government of the United States exists to serve its citizens. For over two centuries the Constitution has remained in force because its framers wisely separated and balanced governmental powers to safeguard the interests of majority rule and minority rights, of liberty and equality, and of the federal and state governments. Since 1789, the Constitution has evolved through amendments to meet the changing needs of a nation now profoundly different from the eighteenth-century world in which its creators lived.
