Requirements for Undergraduate Admission

Application for Admission
The application for admission and other necessary forms may be obtained from the Admissions Office at Texas A&M University–Commerce.

Official Transcript
It is the applicant's responsibility to see that an official transcript is provided. High school transcripts should show the units completed, the grades earned, the date of graduation, and the rank in class. Admissions acceptance will be tentatively granted on the basis of the first semester of the senior year. An applicant who attended another academic institution or any institution for vocational or advanced education, if only for a short period of time, must include this work as a part of the admission application information. Applicants must submit official transcripts from all colleges attended.

Admissions Test Results
All applicants for admission who have passed fewer than 21 semester hours of transferable college work must submit an acceptable score on either the ACT or SAT. The A&M-Commerce code for ACT is 4088. The A&M-Commerce code for SAT is 6188. To meet admission requirements students must score a minimum of 20 ACT or 920 SAT – Reading plus Math ONLY, (Writing is a separate score on both, not counted in the total). If a student graduates in the top ¼ of his or her class, a test score must be submitted but there is no minimum score required.

Social Security Number/Campus Wide ID Number (CWID)
A new campus wide ID number is now used as a permanent student identification number. The campus wide ID number is generated once a student is admitted to the University. Campuswide ID numbers are specific to Texas A&M University-Commerce, therefore, students who do not have a Social Security number should obtain one prior to filing application for admission. Social Security numbers will continue to be printed on transcripts as a means of identifying students. Application for Social Security numbers may be obtained from any post office.
