The Educational Talent Search Programs at UT Arlington provide free college, career and financial aid information to over 1,000 junior high and high school students each year. Talent Search identifies and selects students who demonstrate the potential for post-secondary enrollment and provides them with the motivation and support to enroll in a program of post-secondary education (college, university, technical or vocational school) after high school graduation.
We have had to make some schedule changes to our summer activities. Please disregard the paper calendar you received in the mail.
Check out the updated activities below under the "Calendar" section!
Call for any trip or activity, that you would like to attend, to get your name on the list!

It is very important that we have all of your current contact information. Please be sure when you move, or change phone numbers or email addresses, that we receive the updated changes. We mail out our quarterly calendar of activities so we wouldn’t want you to miss out on receiving those.
Also, we send important updates and reminders via email so if we do not have your current email address on file, you are missing out on information regarding our program. Current email addresses (yours and your parents) are very important! (Please make sure emails from our program aren’t going into your junk email box).
Current telephone numbers are important as well. Please call, email us or Facebook us with your most updated information. You can also give the information to your ETS advisor when you visit with them. We want to stay in touch with you!
Please remember to register for EVERY activity by calling, emailing or letting us know on Facebook.
