Submit Your Application
You must apply for admission online using through ApplyTexas or Common App. It is important that you fill out all sections of your application completely. Remember, the International Application is for anyone who is in a non-immigrant visa status. If you are not a U.S. citizen, permanent resident, refugee, or asylee, you should complete the international application. If you are not on a visa and are graduating from a Texas high school after three (3) years in residence in Texas, you are considered a domestic applicant (per Senate Bill 1528).
Applicants needing a visa to enter the U.S. should complete all application requirements at least a month before the posted deadline to ensure time to complete the process.
