Admission Requirements and Process

To enroll, a prospective student must be at least 16 years of age; students under 18 require a parent or guardian to sign the Enrollment Agreement. Before starting, entrance requirements must be met by supplying documentation UTI accepts — a standards-based high school diploma recognized by the student's state, a state-issued GED or state-authorized equivalent, qualifying postsecondary coursework, or completion of an officially recognized home-schooling program. Applicants complete an application and Enrollment Agreement through UTI's electronic enrollment process and, upon acceptance, are conditionally admitted until their documentation is judged acceptable. UTI recommends allowing adequate lead time (ideally at least 30 days) for documents to be evaluated and any deficiency to be addressed.
