Texas lets students see which colleges would accept them before applying

All public universities in the state join growing direct admission' program that aims to reduce application anxiety

Texas universities have joined a number of other colleges and universities across 35 states in participating in a program, revolutionizing the normally tedious college application process by allowing students to determine if they will get accepted to a school before even applying.

Direct admission", which was piloted in 2021 and formally launched at the end of 2023, aims to streamline the college application process, with schools offering students admission even if they didn't apply. Notably, not all colleges and universities across the US are part of the program.
