UT EID Self-Service Tools

Prospective Students

Once you submit your ApplyTexas application for admission, you will receive a UT EID to access MyStatus and to complete other admissions related processes.

You may already have a UT EID if you have sent the university test scores such as SAT, ACT or GRE. Use the tools listed to the left to find or manage your existing UT EID.

If you do not yet have a UT EID, you will receive it via email no later than 2-3 days after you submit your AppyTexas application. Creating a second UT EID may delay the processing of your application, so you should wait to complete the additional application processes that require a UT EID.
