Transfer Admissions: Timeline

Applications are accepted and reviewed on a rolling basis until the regular application deadline. The following is a general timeline of our admissions process to help you understand what to expect when submitting an application.

Submit your application and required documents.

Follow the steps to apply as a transfer student. After you submit your application through ApplyTexas, have paid your application fee or requested to waive the fee, and have provided your required and optional supporting documents, your application will be considered complete and ready for review.

Your completed application will be reviewed.

The admission office will review your entire completed application file before rendering an admission decision. You are encouraged to submit your documents early. This process can take four to six weeks; however, it might take longer during peak times. You can check on your application status or any missing documentation in the Orion Applicant Center inside Galaxy.

You will receive an admission decision.

Once an admission decision is made, your application status will be updated in your Orion Applicant Center in Galaxy. A decision letter will be mailed to the address listed on your application, as well as emailed to your UT Dallas email address.

If admitted, you will need to complete the steps after admission for transfer students before you can register for classes.
