Advice About English Proficiency
If English is not your primary language, plan to prove English Language Proficiency before you come to the College of Music.
UNT offers an excellent language institute for learning English, Intensive English Language Institute (IELI). Students who are enrolled in IELI cannot begin music degree studies until they complete the language program or prove English Language Proficiency. Read more about IELI.
We have a long and rich tradition of welcoming both undergraduate and graduate students from around the world. We are pleased to hear of your interest in our College of Music and look forward to you becoming part of the College of Music at the University of North Texas.
