ADVANCED ADMISSIONS PROGRAMS FOR UTA UNDERGRADUATES

In support of the educational career of our high achieving students, the College of Business offers two accelerated admission paths to UTA undergraduate students who meet certain requirements during their academic career. Students meeting these requirements will be eligible for unconditional admission to a participating Master’s program without the need to submit the traditional application for admission, pay an application fee, or submit a GMAT/GRE score.

The best way to learn if Fast Track or Facilitated Admission options are right for you is through an information session. Held both virtually and in-person each semester, these 30-minute sessions cover the specifics of each process to ensure you are prepared to make the decision that is right for you.
