Something For Everyone
Much like the city it calls home, UT offers something for everyone. Students can pick from more than 1,200 classes offered each semester at 16 colleges and schools. And, with more than 1,100 student organizations active at UT, finding a tight-knit group of friends among 50,000 students isn’t too difficult.
