Eligibility
Prospective applicants must be:
- A Texas resident. (TAMS/UNT requires that an applicant be a Texas resident based on the parent or court-appointed legal guardian at the time of application. Non-US citizens must provide copies of their Permanent Resident cards, and applicants who have applied for permanent residency may furnish copies of the i-797 Notice of Action reflecting application for the parent and student. Some parents and students with select visa types may also be eligible for Texas residency.)
- Enrolled in an accredited or state approved high school program as a 9th, 10th or 11th grader. [Note: Students who earn admissions to TAMS as 11th graders MUST - without exception - complete two years in the TAMS program at UNT in order to receive verification of high school graduation. This means that a student will not "complete high school" at the same time as their former traditional high school classmates, but a TAMS/UNT student completes 60+ university credit hours, which puts the student "ahead" of their former traditional school classmates in time-to-degree completion].
- Enrolled in or completed Algebra II or higher, having previously completed Algebra I and Geometry.
