Academic Programs

  • Liberal Studies
    Bachelor of Science in Liberal Studies is a program designed principally for mature students who seek a flexible degree program and who do not desire or may not meet prerequisites of a highly structured traditional degree program, and to permit students to plan, with advisement, an individualized program with access to a wide range of academic disciplines and fields of professional study.

Departments

  • Academic Advising Services
    The Mission of Academic Advising Services is to encourage all students, through proactive and intrusive advising, to become engaged in their personal development toward achievement of their academic and life goals.  We value the ability of our faculty advisors to relate to the needs and goals of students.
  • Academic Support Programs
    The primary mission of Academic Support Programs (ASP) is to assist students in developing effective techniques for facilitating their own learning. ASP is committed to fulfilling its mission by helping students attain their highest level of academic achievement possible by creating a supportive and challenging environment that will provide equal opportunity to all students for academic success.
  • Student Assessment Services
    Formerly called University Testing, Student Assessment Services (SAS) provides future students with testing accommodations or services for entrance, placement, and credit exams. Current students can contact SAS for online class test proctoring, sign up for the Writing Proficiency Exam, and find information about academic appeals.
  • Student Disability Services
    Student Disability Services exists to assist students with documented needs for accommodations as they pursue their goal of a college education. SDS serves as a liaison between students and the University in matters of communication and action toward achievement of reasonable accommodation. However, each student is responsible for acting as his or her own advocate and taking the major responsibility for securing services.

  • Upward Bound
    Tarleton State University's Upward Bound serves high school students from low-income families and high school students from families in which neither parent holds a Bachelors degree who are preparing to enter postsecondary education. The goal of Upward Bound is to increase the rates at which participants enroll in and graduate from institutions of postsecondary education.
