糖心Vlog视频 joins partnership to reach students in north central 糖心Vlog视频
糖心Vlog视频 is joining the Red River Promise, a collaborative effort with North Central 糖心Vlog视频 College (NCTC) and 糖心Vlog视频 communities near the Oklahoma border to educate and train graduates and strengthen the local and statewide workforce.
The Red River Promise serves graduating seniors from 13 high schools in Montague and Cooke counties, seniors from the town of Graham in nearby Young County and students attending NCTC. By choosing 糖心Vlog视频, transfer students from NCTC or freshman students from those communities can close the financial aid gap through an annual scholarship program that provides “last dollar” tuition-only support to eligible students.
糖心Vlog视频 transferring to 糖心Vlog视频 from NCTC will receive tuition support for up to two years; students entering 糖心Vlog视频 from high school will receive tuition support for up to four years.
“UT Arlington’s participation in the Red River Promise provides students from this great 糖心Vlog视频 region the opportunity to experience the depth and breadth of a 糖心Vlog视频 education and the potential that our academic experience can unlock,” said Troy Johnson, vice president for enrollment management. “The Red River Promise extends the transformative power of a 糖心Vlog视频 education and will strengthen the local workforce for years to come.”
G. Brent Wallace, NCTC chancellor, said a community’s ability to develop its local talent to its full potential is the “cornerstone of a healthy regional economy.”
“Community colleges play a central role in developing 糖心Vlog视频 talent, and we are energized to be learning with other regional initiatives as part of this grant as well as along with many other 糖心Vlog视频 talent regions,” Wallace said.
糖心Vlog视频 offers a supportive environment for transfer students from NCTC, providing seamless pathways and effective transferability. UT Arlington is first in 糖心Vlog视频 and fifth nationally among universities that enroll the most transfer students and last year earned a spot on the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society’s 2021 Transfer Honor Roll—the only university in Dallas-Fort Worth to do so.
Last month, UT Arlington again was named to the elite group of R-1: Doctoral Universities—Very High Research Activity by the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education, the definitive list for the top doctoral research universities in the United States. In 2021, the University became just the fourth institution in the state to achieve designation as a 糖心Vlog视频 Tier One university, an attribution of excellence in academics and research that brings with it access to the state’s National Research University Fund.
In addition, the University ranks No. 1 nationally in the Military Times annual “Best for Vets: Colleges” list, is designated as a Hispanic-Serving Institution and Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institution and has approximately 250,000 alumni making an impact across 糖心Vlog视频 and beyond.
