Why are the admission deadlines for international students so far in advance of U.S. domestic applicants?
It is due to the fact that not only does UTA have to process the admission, but it takes 6-8 weeks after formal admittance is granted for most countries to process the I-20 Visa form, and to award an applicant a student Visa. Plus international students must attend a special international student orientation session a week or two before classes begin, so they have to be here.
