Becoming a WT Buff is easy with the guidance of the Office of Admissions and Advising Services. Get started by using the links below to learn about our application process, campus visits, degree programs, tuition costs and much more.
Transfer students have earned transferable 12 or more college-level credit at a regionally accredited institution the fall semester or later after high school graduation. College credits earned prior to high school graduation (dual-credit) and courses taken immediately following high school graduation during the summer do not count towards the 12 needed to classify a student as a transfer student.
Returning students have previously attended West Texas A&M University and are returning from a break in their academic career. These students have previously completed courses at West Texas A&M University.
Undergraduate students enrolled at another colleges or universities may attend WTAMU as transient or visiting students for one semester, provided their intent is to return to their previous college or university.
WT offers high school students opportunities to earn college credit while still in high school through the Pre-University Program (PUP). We also have Dual Credit opportunities for students in high school.
International students are not citizens or permanent residents of the United States -- any foreign student residing in or planning to study in the United States on any type of visa other than a resident alien card is considered an international student. Both Undergraduate and Graduate students who meet this criteria should select "International" as their application type.
Once you’ve started your application, schedule a visit and turn your transcripts into the admissions office along with your ACT/SAT score if you have under 12 hours. Upon learning of your acceptance, you may officially sign-up for new student orientation or transfer student orientation to begin your Buff journey.
