How to Apply

Step 1: Apply

Fill out Eat Texas A&M’s free dual credit online application with ApplyTexas. You must have an active, personal email address. If you need help filling out the application, contact your high school counselor or your parent. If you are a student who needs to reverse-transfer your credits back to another college, please indicate this in your application. Then stay tuned for an email confirming that East Texas A&M received your application.

  • It is only necessary to apply if you are completely new to dual credit OR have not taken dual credit classes for a full year.

Step 2: Submit Transcripts

Official high school transcripts must be submitted through your high school counselor. For students who have taken college-level courses at another institution, transcripts must be sent to:

East Texas A&M University

Office of Undergraduate Admissions

PO Box 3011

Commerce, Texas 75429-3011

Step 3: Stay Tuned

An acceptance email will include your student identification number, otherwise known as your campus-wide ID (CWID).

Step 4: Submit Docs

Submit TSI Scores or Exemptions

  • If you have TSI Scores, you will need to log in to Accuplacer to send those records to East Texas A&M.
  • If you have SAT or ACT scores that can exempt you from TSI, you will need to log in to their respective websites and have the SAT or ACT scores sent to East Texas A&M.

Contact your high school counselor for help sending in your TSI scores or exemptions.

Submit Bacterial Meningitis Vaccination Records

  • This requirement is only applicable to students who are taking dual credit classes at the main campus in Commerce, Texas or the Dallas location. Students taking dual-credit classes at their high school are exempt from submitting bacterial meningitis vaccination records.

Step 5: Login

  • Log in to MyLEO for the first time:
    • Your username is your CWID (campus wide ID number). Check your acceptance email for your CWID. Follow this link if you can't find your CWID.
    • Your password is your birthdate in this format: (example…Jun081979). If you have logged in previously, you were prompted to change/update this password.
    • Our university now requires two-factor authentication – the system will direct you.

Then:

  1. Check your LeoMail.
    • Log in to MyLEO
    • Your student email account called LeoMail is accessible through the Apps tab at the top of your screen.
    • Select the LeoMail icon.
    • Right click on the app and select “open link in new tab” so you can check email and still have access to other things in MyLeo.
    • Make certain to check this email daily, as this is where the majority of university communications will be sent.
    • When you email through your online class, emails are sent and received through your LeoMail.
  2. View and resolve any academic holds.
  3. Sign the Financial Agreement Form.
    • This agreement must be accepted each time registration opens. Whenever you login to MyLeo for the first time, a screen prompting you to review the Financial Responsibility Agreement will pop up. Whether you are or are not paying for your dual credit classes, you must read the agreement and click on the box asserting that you have read through the prompt. If you do not receive this prompt, you can view the Financial Responsibility Agreement in the Student Resources tab. When you click on the Registration Menu under Student Information, the form should pop up.

Step 6: Register

All registration is completed through your high school counselor and East Texas A&M. Dual credit students are currently not allowed to register for classes on their own and have a mandatory registration hold on their accounts.
