Which of the UT is best for me? I’m interested in joining a policy debate program (I’ve been debating throughout middle school and high school), as well as majoring in Computer Information Systems (possible dual major with Computer Science) or Spanish (possible dual major with Music). I also want to study in an urban setting, even in a suburban environment (I want to avoid rural). I also want a decent music program that offers music ensembles.

What is your class rank? I think you would enjoy UT San Antonio which meets all of your academic, social, and extra curricular requirements.

Also consider the University of North Texas in Denton. Though it’s not part of the UT system, it seems to be a good option for you.

Since you live in Dallas, you should tour both UTA and UTD to gauge your opinion about the two instituions.
