About
The University of Texas at Dallas, located in Richardson, Texas, was founded in 1969 through the donation of their research arm by Texas Instruments. The school was admitted as a member of the University of Texas System through the signing of the bill by Governor Preston Smith. The school is located some 18 miles north of downtown Dallas, sitting on 710 acres of donated and purchased land. The school has grown in size, scope and offering over the years, especially during the decade following its formal induction as a public institution, seeing rapid growth in enrollment and the introduction of a large numbers of majors and programs. Over the years the campus has seen numerous improvements and additions over the years. The continued growth and development of the school has required constant update and evaluation of services and programs, and as such the school continually aims to meet the needs of the modern student. UTD has a history of cooperation with private business, most recently working with Honeywell International to establish the NanoTech Institute. The school aims to be on the cutting edge, working with new technologies to enhance student experience and their futures.

Academics
There are over 140 programs of study available to students enrolled at UTD. The large number allows students to pursue the program that best suits their personal and professional goals. Bachelor's degrees are earned through the study of one's major by completing lower and upper division courses, general education requirements, and an assortment of electives that allow for experience and study in non major areas. Students may also obtain a minor degree through the completion of additional courses that provide an extra area of study and expertise outside of the chosen major. Graduate programs are also available at the master's and doctoral level. Such programs will have separate admissions requirements, typically involving high scores on graduate level exams, an appropriate degree earned, and a strong academic record. Some programs may have more specific requirements related to the area or field of study.

Programs offered include:

Admissions and Financial Aid
Residents of Texas who have completed a high school education in the top ten percent of their class will be automatically admitted to UTD as per Texas state law. Students with an SAT of 1200 or ACT of 26 and class rank in the top 15% will also be guaranteed admission. Students below this mark will face review by committee and have their admission based on application, essay, test scores and transcripts. All students must submit a completed application for admission, including all required essays and providing pertinent transcripts and test scores. Students will be notified as soon as possible regarding their admissions status, with admitted students being provided with the necessary information for beginning their college experience.

Financial aid is available in the form of loans, grants, scholarships and work study programs. Students in need of financial assistance must complete and submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), the provided information from which will be used to determine financial need, aid program eligibility and monetary awards. Financial aid must be reapplied prior to the start of each academic year. Students may be randomly chosen to provide additional financial information in order to verify the FAFSA's accuracy due to new federal regulations for aid.
