What Is the University of North Texas (unt.edu) Website?

Updated

unt.edu is the official website of the University of North Texas, a large public university in Texas with nearly 44,000 students. The site is the main entry point for prospective students, current students, faculty, alumni, parents, and visitors, covering academics, admissions, tuition and aid, student life, research, and athletics. Use it to explore degree programs, plan a campus visit, or reach the tools you need (MyUNT, Canvas, student email, the directory) through the quicklinks at the top of the page.

What the site covers

The navigation is organized around the main audiences and needs of a university:

Section What you'll find
Academics Degree types (bachelor's, master's, doctorate, certificates), locations (Denton, Frisco, Online), subject areas, colleges and schools, libraries

Degree programs and academic scope

UNT offers 116 bachelor's, 87 master's, and 39 doctoral degree programs, plus certificates. You can browse by degree type, by location (Denton, Frisco, or Online), or by subject area. The subject list spans arts and design, business and industry, communications and media, data analytics and information, education, health and wellness, humanities and social sciences, music and performing arts, public service, STEM, and multidisciplinary studies. Students who haven't chosen a field can start under "Still Exploring & Undetermined."

How UNT presents itself

The homepage highlights several claims worth knowing if you're evaluating the school:

  • Nearly 44,000 students, described as "the top choice for career readiness in Texas"
  • Named one of America's Top Colleges by Forbes for 18 years in a row
  • Ranked 34th in the nation for social mobility by U.S. News & World Report
  • 90 academic programs ranked among the nation's Top 100

These are the university's own summary figures; check the linked rankings and program pages if a specific number matters to your decision.

Practical starting points

  • Prospective students: Start with Admissions to find your path (freshman, transfer, international, graduate), then register for an event such as the Future Eagle Preview on Oct. 24 or the Grad School Preview. The page notes you can meet faculty and staff, get admissions and financial aid questions answered, and apply on the spot.
  • Current students: Use the quicklinks for MyUNT, Canvas, and student email rather than navigating through the main menu.
  • Visitors and families: The "Info For" menu routes parents, alumni, community members, and visitors to the sections built for them; the campus map and calendar are in the quicklinks.

The site does not publish tuition figures or login requirements on the homepage itself, so follow the Tuition & Aid and admissions links for current details rather than assuming costs or access from the landing page.
