Campus Open House Welcomes Anyone Seeking to Continue Education
It will be the first day of the month, and for some future Trailblazers, it will be
the first time they visit the UNT Dallas campus. On Saturday, Nov. 1, 2025, hundreds of prospective students from area high schools and community colleges will
be welcomed at the annual True Blue Preview Day from 9 - 11:30 a.m.
At "True Blue," students can learn about academic programs and majors offered by UNT Dallas' four schools
It’s the perfect stop for young men and women thinking about where they want to go
to college and what kind of career they want to pursue. It’s also the place for individuals
with an associate’s degree planning to complete their bachelor’s degree or those who
attended college earlier in life and want to continue their education.
RSVP to Attend True Blue 2025 - It's Fast & Free
True Blue offers an up-close-and-personal look at what makes the Trailblazer community unique and different. It is a family-friendly environment with bilingual staff and faculty members who can answer any questions and make sure guests receive the information they need, including parents and guardians. UNT Dallas specializes in supporting first-generation and other first-time college students, with programs such as Trailblazer Elite.
“True Blue is an opportunity to meet our team of experts who will describe our programs and majors, explain ways to pay for college, including grants, scholarships, and financial aid options beyond FAFSA, and show you how to apply,” said Luis Franco, Assistant Vice President for Enrollment Management. “From professors and deans to academic advisors and success coaches, we will all be here to help.”
