About Finish Strong

The Just Start Scholarship is for non-traditional students – students who are not coming to Texarkana College while in or immediately following high school.

A TC Donor has made it possible for students who have almost completed a degree or certificate at Texarkana College to finish with their tuition and fees covered.

Complete ALL of the steps below by July 18, 2025 to receive the Just Start Scholarship offer. 

Just Start Registration Checklist

The first step to continuing your college journey is simple, applying online. If you need assistance, contact Taylor Richard at 903-823-3384 or by email here

Start Your Application

If you’ve earned credit or taken classes at any other college since you last attended TC,

we need official transcripts to apply toward your degree or certificate at Texarkana College. Submit your transcripts electronically, by paper mail, or in person to the Nelson Administration Building on campus. 

Immunization Records: 

  • Students under the age of 22 will not be allowed to register without proof of current bacterial meningitis vaccination. This may be mailed to the Office of Admissions or delivered in person to the Nelson Administration Building on campus. Explore more information on this requirement and review a waiver option from the bacterial meningitis vaccination.

Proof of Current Meningitis Vaccination

Once you’ve applied and submitted transcripts and shot records, you should receive an admissions acceptance letter or email from Texarkana College to the email you used to submit your admissions application. Receiving this letter or email indicates that you have been accepted to Texarkana College, and at this point you are able to apply for financial aid.

  • Texarkana College’s Federal Financial Aid code is 003628. For assistance with Financial Aid, contact us at 903-823-3267 or by email.
