The ApplyTexas Application was created to help make applying to a Texas institution of higher education
easier. You are strongly encouraged to apply online at www.applytexas.org.

The following procedure is recommended for students who wish to apply to more than one college or
university and who complete a paper application:

1. Each institution has its own unique admission instructions and required credentials. Before
mailing your application, refer to the web site or contact the admissions office of each college or
university to which you apply for additional institutional information.

2. Complete Parts I and II of the ApplyTexas Application. Leave item # 18 blank as you are
completing the application.

3. Photocopy the original completed application and make one copy for each college or university to
which you are applying. Keep the original application for your files in the event you wish to apply to
to other institutions at a later time.

4. On each copy of the application, complete item #18 by entering the name of the college or
to which you are applying and your first and second choice of major. Follow the instructions for
completing the ApplyTexas Application to ensure proper listing of major( s).

5. Submit one completed application to each college or university to which you are applying,
including Part II, essays and application fee if these items are required by the institution. Not all
institutions require applicants to send in the same parts of the common application. See the
general application information section on pages ii through iv of this booklet to determine what
items are required by the institutions to which you apply.
