: UTA Facilitates Financial Accessibility for Prospective International Scholars

Prospective international graduate students applying to the biomedical engineering programs at the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA) for the Fall 2024 semester can now benefit from an application fee waiver, easing the financial burden associated with the application process.

In a move aimed at enhancing accessibility to higher education opportunities, a fee waiver initiative specifically tailored for international graduate applicants is available for those seeking admission for the Fall 2024 semester.

To take advantage of this opportunity, interested applicants should follow a straightforward process outlined by UTA:

  • Initiate the Application: Commence the application process by visiting the Apply Texas website at applytexas.org.
  • Use the Waiver Code: Input the application fee waiver code "UTAENGR24" under the "Questions specific to UTA" section on page 2 of the online application.
  • Payment Selection: When prompted to identify the preferred payment method for the application processing fee, select "Payment by Check/Money Order".
  • Avoid Sending Payment: Refrain from sending any payment, as refunds will not be issued if payment is accidentally submitted.
  • Following the completion of the application process, UTA will email the student ID to applicants within 3-5 days of submitting the online application. It's important to note that application data transmission from Apply Texas to UTA may take approximately 2 to 3 business days, excluding weekends and holidays.

Applying the application fee waiver is currently a manual process, taking 5 to 7 U.S. business days (excluding weekends and national holidays) before being applied to the applicant's file. During this period, applicants may receive automated emails prompting them to pay the fee. It's advised to disregard such emails regarding fee payment and ensure timely submission of any supporting application materials.

By offering this fee waiver, UTA aims to alleviate financial constraints and facilitate access to graduate education for international scholars.

Prospective international graduate students are encouraged to seize this opportunity to pursue their academic aspirations at UTA. For further inquiries or assistance regarding the application fee waiver process, applicants can reach out to the UTA admissions office for guidance and support.

This initiative underscores UTA's commitment to fostering accessibility and equity in higher education, paving the way for international scholars to thrive academically and professionally.
