What type of student-athletes is UT Dallas looking for?
It is important to us that you are a “good fit” for UT Dallas. Because most of our athletic programs are very strong, you can expect a lot of competition for roster spots and playing time in most programs. Secondly, you MUST be strong academically to be considered for admission to UT Dallas. The admission process is the same for student-athletes as it is for any other applicant. The Athletic Dept. receives no special admission “exceptions,” so student-athletes are required to meet the same admissions standards as any other student. This doesn’t, however, mean you have to be an honor graduate with a perfect GPA to even be considered. If you feel you are a strong student who will succeed in college and have relatively good test scores, we encourage you to apply.
