Application information

Find out about requirements, fees, and deadlines

First-year

Applicants are considered first-time freshmen if the students’ first enrollment at a college/university, excluding summer, will occur at UTD within two years of graduating from high school or if they earn college credit before high school graduation.

Applicants are reviewed individually and holistically. Consideration is given to factors such as overall grades in academic coursework and trends in achievement; strength of high school curriculum, including level of rigor (AP, IB, dual credit); high school rank and GPA; SAT or ACT test scores, if available; ability to be successful in the intended major; and information provided in the résumé, essay and/or letters of recommendation.

Additional Information

At UT Dallas, the Office of Financial Aid helps to remove financial barriers, assists students with the cost of attendance and strives to provide students with the federal, state and institutional financial assistance. The application period for financial aid begins October 1 of each year for the following academic year (fall, spring, summer). The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is available online at fafsa.gov. Residents of Texas who are ineligible to receive federal aid may qualify for assistance through the Texas Application for State Financial Aid (TASFA). Information for eligibility is available at www.collegeforalltexans.com. Learn about financial aid opportunities at utdallas.edu/finaid.

Prospective freshmen students who are admitted to UT Dallas by the priority admission deadline are automatically reviewed for an Academic Excellence Scholarship (AES) award. Scholarships are subject to fund availability, and some scholarship programs provide funding throughout the student’s undergraduate or graduate career provided the student meets continuing eligibility requirements. Learn more about these and other scholarships at utdallas.edu/scholarships.
