We
are delighted in your
interest in graduate
studies at The University
of Texas at Arlington. Our
friends and neighbors know
us as simply "UT
Arlington,"
and we hope that you will
soon join that growing
crowd. This website will
answer most of your
immediate questions. But
if you cannot find what
you need here, there are
many willing people ready
to provide additional
answers. Telephone and
facsimile numbers,
addresses and campus
locations are provided
elsewhere in the website
to ensure that you know
whom to contact and how to
do so. |

Our university is a
comprehensive institution
offering educational and
research opportunities in
most major disciplines. UT
Arlington is ideally situated in
North Texas in the vibrant
community of Arlington
midway between two
cultural, economic and
industrial centers of
power and influence - the
cities of Fort Worth and
Dallas. Collectively,
along with our other
neighboring communities,
the region is known as the
"Metroplex" and
stretches more than 50
miles across in all
directions. The student in
need of a little
distraction can find
everything from
world-class symphonies and
museums to cowboy rodeos,
dude ranches and theme
parks either in or within
a short drive from
Arlington. Culturally
diverse and constantly
stimulating, the Metroplex
is a great place for a
student to live.
UT Arlington
is both young and old, and
you will read more about
that later in this website. At this point,
suffice it to say that UT
Arlington
has celebrated its 100th
anniversary as an
educational institution,
but also has recently
passed its 30th
anniversary as a member of
the outstanding University
of Texas System. To you, a
prospective student, this
duality means that UT
Arlington is
rich in tradition, but
young enough to meet the
demands of a changing
society. Our academic
programs welcome your
interest, and whatever
your interests may be, we
believe that UT Arlington has
something to offer you.
During our Centennial
observance, we used the
motto: A Tradition of
Excellence. A Future of
Opportunity. We hope that
you will soon become a
part of that tradition and
capitalize on the
opportunities that UT
Arlington
offers.
