TSU acceptance rate is between 57-61% per data curated from unofficial sources. This shows it is fairly selective at admitting students giving clear preference towards individuals with solid academic bg so interested people need to make sure to have the same.

Tarleton state charges application fee of USD 50 (INR 4.3 K) from all international applicants.

Fee is non refundable and is important to be paid as part of application process, unless one possesses fee waiver.

It is not possible to submit the application without the payment of the said fee, & international students are advised to do the same & submit their application as early as possible to allow time for document processing.
