Plan ahead for spring semester

UT Arlington is planning for the possibility that the spring term may be similar to the fall, with a mixture of face-to-face, hybrid, and online courses. The University will continue to follow public health guidelines and remain flexible in meeting the needs of our students.

To help you get started, we have prepared a master list of spring 2021 courses. It details which courses UTA plans to offer in face-to-face, online, and hybrid formats.

College Park Dollars

Starting Monday, Oct. 19, UTA meal plan users will be able to use College Park Dollars at all on-campus dining locations. The change ensures the dollars benefit users after the closure of Panera Bread.

Harmony is the newest Spirit Horse on campus, with decorations appropriate for its position outside the Health Services Center. The pony's unveiling was at UTA's 125th birthday party this week.
