Students (either new or transfer) wishing to enroll in one of the programs of study leading to one of the three undergraduate degrees offered through the College of Science and Technology must first gain admission to Texas Southern University through policies and procedures established by the University Director of Admissions. Once admitted, students are required to contact both the General University Academic Center (or GUAC) for advisement regarding the fulfillment of GUAC requirements and the department of choice in the College for additional advisement. Students may not officially declare majors until GUAC requirements have been fulfilled and identified deficiencies have been eradicated, however, they are eligible to enroll in some selected courses offered through the three departments in the College once admitted. The eight Department Offices provide advisement upon request related to courses available to students who are not yet eligible to declare majors in the College.

Once admitted or while applying for admission, students who need financial aid or assistance should contact the Office of Financial Aid at the University. In addition, some competitive scholarships are available to students through the College with the following specified names: Myrtle B. Fonteno, Selma Lee, Arnold Chevalier, B. A. lluuer, AGC, J. E. DUNN, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Southwest University Transportation Center (SWUTC), and College of Science and Technology Scholarships.

Students earning GPA's of approximately 3.00 or higher may inquire about mailing application for these scholarships through one of the eight Department Offices or the Dean's Office. Former students in the College who were enrolled for credit within the year prior to registration are not required to apply for readmission. However, students who last attended one year or more, prior to registration, are required to file applications for readmission and submit transcripts from all colleges attended since their last enrollment at Texas Southern University.
