Timeline.  Sophomores, apply between July 2009 and February 19, 2010. 
 
Interviews are by invitation only.  Interview Day assignments are based on time of receipt of applications.  Applications peak at deadlines, at which time processing is slowed such that volume rather than preference, may dictate which Interview Day is assigned.  Applying early reduces conflicts. 

Eligibility.  Applicants must be sophomore Texas residents who will have completed geometry and Algebra II by May 2010.  Current SAT scores are required. Successful applicants are interested in a math, science, or engineering career; are enrolled in pre-AP, honors, or the most challenging sophomore courses available; are involved with science or math projects, and extracurricular activities; and will submit competitive transcripts, SAT scores, and teacher references.

SAT.  Current SAT I scores (Critical Reading, Writing, and Math) should be competitive with those of college-bound seniors planning to major in math or science.  The highest scores from a single administration will count if submitting multiple SATs.  Have scores sent to TAMS via code 0164, not the University of North Texas code.

 Any SAT taken after January 23, 2010 will not meet the February 19 application deadline.

 Application. Do not leave any part blank. Collect the following before beginning:

°   Your 6-digit school CEEB code from your counselor (4__-___).

°   Your Education Service Center (ESC) region number:  http://www.tea.state.tx.us/perfreport/texasmap/regionmap.html

°   Names and district numbers of your State (not U.S.) Senator and Representative.
