We are Ready for You!

The Graduate School at West Texas A&M University recognizes the ambiguity students and families currently face. Much has changed around us because of the pandemic. What has not changed is our commitment to the academic and health needs of our students. We are a student-centered institution providing a variety of resources to help working professionals continue their educational journey.

We are ready to adjust, as circumstances require.

As we saw in the spring, circumstances can arise that force change. The WT leadership is committed to a clear path forward, and will carry out the plans articulated in this message unless other authorities require modification.

WT will continue to be a place for you to safely learn, grow, and express yourself.
At WT, we are ready for the spring semester, and we are ready for you! Apply Now!

Students who register early will have every opportunity to select the mode of learning that best fits them. Contact us to enroll!

We are ready to welcome you to the safest University campus in TX.

Safe Campus
The unique combination of campus and community culture, state-of-the-art facilities, campus safety, and health officers, have resulted in an outstanding and safe campus experience. WT was named the safest campus in Texas and among the top 10 safest campuses in the nation based on the U.S. Department of Education’s Campus Safety and Security and the FBI’s Uniform Crime Report.

We are ready to participate in athletic competition.

Athletics
WT athletic venues lend to the practice of social distancing for fans. The new ticketing systems and facilities are already in place to help manage social distancing and attendance limits. If attendance to sporting events is limited, season ticket holders and students will be given preference regarding attendance.

We are ready to make COVID-19 mitigation a priority.

COVID-19 Mitigation

WT has and will continue to make decisions with the safety and well-being of students, faculty, and staff as the highest priority. The following are a few examples of the steps taken to assure campus safety:

  • Modified classes to adhere to recommended social distancing practices
  • Dining services are being changed and new disinfectant and cleaning protocols are in place
  • Face coverings are required to be worn by all individuals on campus
  • Door handles and other high touch surfaces have an antimicrobial covering, which kills surface-borne bacteria invented by WT researchers.
