Application Information

---

Applications to the UTD AuD Program are accepted from September 1 through January 15. Early applications are encouraged. Review of completed applications begins in December and interviews are scheduled through February and March.

The UT Dallas AuD Program is highly competitive. The admissions committee evaluates applications on several dimensions, including undergraduate GPA, GRE scores, letters of recommendation, commitment to scholarship, as well as evidence of prior community engagement, professional experiences, leadership history, success in the face of barriers, and personal growth. All students, including those who are out-of-field, are encouraged to apply.

To Apply

• Official transcripts
  • Applicants are expected to have completed at least one undergraduate course (AP examinations not accepted) in the life sciences (Biology plus lab preferred), physical sciences (physics plus lab preferred), and behavioral sciences, as well as college math/statistics and a course in language development. 
  • If transcript review reveals deficiencies in undergraduate preparation for the AuD degree, the above courses must be taken either at an accredited university prior to admission or as co-requisites at UT Dallas.
  • An undergraduate course in audiology is not required but is very beneficial for out-of-field students prior to beginning AuD study.

Financial Aid & Tuition

Financial support for full-time doctoral students in the AuD program is awarded through graduate student assistantships and tuition scholarships, when available. Admitted students are automatically considered for these sources of financial aid, and students are highly encouraged to apply for work-study.
