Transfer Student Leadership Program
The mission of the Transfer Student Leadership Program (TSLP) is to provide undergraduate transfer students the opportunity to earn a leadership certificate and increase their sense of belonging at UT Dallas.

If you’re interested in understanding your leadership style, developing your leadership skills, and earning a student leadership certificate, we encourage you to apply for our leadership program.
Timeline & Deadlines
TSLP begins accepting applications for the fall cohort in September and for the spring cohort in January.
If selected to join the program, you’ll take part in five leadership meetings during the fall or spring semester, and you’ll be matched with a member of our Student Welcome and Transition (S.W.A.T.) Team.
