You can send any questions to cwegrants@twu.edu.  We do not take grant phone calls, as we want documentation of the questions. 

Thank you for your interest in the StartUP grant.  Please ensure you read our guidelines and FAQ.  Over half of applications are typically disqualified for not submitting the correct grant documents or for failing to answer all of our grant questions. There is no rush to submit this; in fact, all Day 1 applications were disqualified.  You can return to your application as many times as you like before submitting, but once you submit, you can't make changes. 

The Center for Women Entrepreneurs at Texas Woman's University is funded by the Texas Legislature to promote women entrepreneurs throughout Texas. Through statewide programs and resources, the Center provides business advising, training, networking, and grant opportunities. No affiliation with Texas Woman's University is required to apply for the StartUP Grant or participate in Center programs.
