Academic Excellence Scholarships Qualifications

The Academic Excellence Scholarship team remains dedicated to serving our prospective students and families during this unprecedented time. Our commitment has always been, and will continue to be, to help students obtain their educational goals. We recognize that many students have been affected by the cancellation and delays in testing dates, and we continue to monitor the situation as it unfolds. We are currently reviewing our AES process to best serve students and their families and will publish further details at an upcoming date. Please continue to monitor this website for details. We appreciate your patience. Please stay safe and healthy!

UT Dallas offers Academic Excellence Scholarships (AES) each year to incoming first-time-in-college freshman students admitted for the fall term immediately following high school graduation. Students are automatically considered for an AES award on the basis of their completed application to the university and no other materials are required.

AES Awarding Timeline

All UT Dallas applications are considered for an Academic Excellence Scholarship. The priority deadline for admission and scholarship consideration is December 1. We encourage future Comets to explore all scholarship opportunities offered by the university and to complete a FAFSA.

Funds available for each year’s new scholarship awards are limited.
