Washington, D.C.

The University of Texas at Austin LBJ School of Public Affairs, in partnership with University Extension, invites students from graduate programs of public policy to enroll in summer 2017 courses at its LBJ Washington Center.

LBJ Washington Center courses are regular University of Texas graduate courses and are transferable to other institutions of higher education. Courses are taken for a letter grade only. Admission will be granted on a rolling basis until classes are filled, and students will be billed when notified of admission. To qualify for enrolment students must have a 3.0 or higher grade point average.  Students are not officially enrolled until tuition is received. The total cost of tuition and fees is $3,000 per course.

To enroll, select a course below and follow the instructions.  You will be asked for payment information, but you will not be billed until a transcript has been received and your enrollment request has been approved.  Submit a copy of your transcript from your current institution to University Extension at 2901 North IH-35, Suite 3.200 Austin TX 78722.  If you have questions about that process, contact University Extension at 512-471-2900 or uex@austin.utexas.edu.

Enrollment requests must be received by May 15, 2017. Students will be notified of admission status once all materials are received and have been reviewed.  Admitted students will be billed after admission notification has been made.
