Join the herd
This is the perfect place to shape your future. We’re a welcoming community with spirit and tradition, outstanding academics, arts and athletics.
At SMU, we care about the whole student – not just your academic life. You’ll find thriving spirit and traditions, a welcoming community where you can start new friendships and resources to live a healthy and active lifestyle.
Our academics – whether you study the arts, sciences, business, humanities or anything in between – are unrivaled. Small class sizes foster strong connections with top-tier professors.
There’s a reason we’re ranked in the top 20% of national universities by US News & World Report (2024) and the top 5% of America’s best colleges by College Factual (2024).
Our beautiful campus is an oasis in the heart of the fourth largest metropolitan area in the country (and the fastest growing), and Dallas is consistently ranked among the best large cities for jobs. You’ll be prepared for an enterprising future, no matter which path you take.
Join our community of world changers. Are you ready? Applications open August 1.
To celebrate joining the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC), we’re waiving the application fee for all first-year and transfer undergraduate students.
