Accreditation
In 1998, the Texas Board of Education authorized UT High School to provide a high school curriculum and award diplomas. The University of Texas at Austin High School is a Texas public school, defined as a Special Purpose District. We adhere to Texas state requirements and policies for public education, but receive no state funding based on student attendance.
We currently offer more than 60 online courses and credit by exams, including English, social studies, mathematics, science, world languages, health, computer applications, physical education, economics, and electives. All of our courses are designed by curriculum experts, meet the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS), and are easily transferable for credit in other schools. Core courses are NCAA approved.
The Best Schools ranks UT High School #26 on their list of The Best Online High School Diploma Programs.
