An international student is defined as an individual on a temporary visa, who does not have a U.S. permanent resident card (green card), and who is not an undocumented immigrant.
You should apply for admission to UNT as an international student if you are not currently a U.S. citizen, you do not have a U.S. permanent resident card (green card), and you are not an undocumented immigrant.

UNT degree program applicants must demonstrate English language proficiency.
If you cannot provide acceptable proof of English language proficiency, you may qualify for conditional admission to UNT and gain English proficiency through the UNT Intensive English Language Institute (IELI) before beginning academic coursework.
See the Additional Information section below for more information about English language requirements for College of Music admission.
Acceptance to UNT does not guarantee acceptance into the major of your choice. Check with your academic department for other requirements and deadlines. Departmental applications, test scores, references, auditions and other items may be required by a different deadline.
I-20 requests can be submitted through the iNorthTX portal for students who have been admitted. Per federal regulation, UNT is not able to issue I-20s to international students until they have received full admission to UNT. Please check your MyUNT portal for more information on your admission status.
First, you must be admitted to a UNT program. After you are admitted to a UNT program, please contact your immigration advisor at your current school about transferring your immigration record to UNT.
Be aware that the College of Music will not evaluate an applicant's file until the student passes the music audition and until they demonstrate English Language Proficiency (ELP). Qualified students applying for IELI and the College of Music will receive an IELI only admission letter and I-20 (if needed) for the above-mentioned program. After completing IELI, the student must apply to UNT, and the applicant's acceptance depends on the student passing a College of Music audition and meeting other university requirements. For most other majors not listed above, a review for conditional admission is possible.
