Lamar University’s Texas Academy offers big opportunities for gifted and talented high school students in Texas

(Beaumont, Texas) – On Wednesday, Jan. 26, the sounds of conversation and curiosity filled the Reaud Honors executive event space as hopeful high school aged students and their parents packed in for the largest Texas Academy Preview Day to date.

The Lamar University Texas Academy is an early entrance honors program for Texas high school juniors and seniors. All students accepted into the unique program receive full-tuition scholarships for up to 15 credit hours per semester while pursuing an academic track in engineering, pre-med/pre-dental, business, pre-nursing or multidisciplinary. Students also can participate in campus intramural sports, marching band and any of the 150 student organizations across the university.

Lamar University President Jaime Taylor stated, “High achieving high school students can earn up to two years of college credit for free in the Texas Academy at Lamar University. It is an amazing opportunity to get started early in the nation’s third highest ranked engineering program, a program ranked ahead of MIT, Harvard and Stanford in return on educational investment. Academic plans leading to completion of pre-med, business, science and the humanities also are available to Texas Academy students.”

Tilisa Thibodeaux, dean of the Reaud Honors College and LU Texas Academy program, said that Preview Day gives the local community an opportunity to learn more about the academy, student opportunities and everything offered at LU.

“Our Texas Academy students have amazing experiences here at Lamar University. They are learning about academics, curriculum, service leadership and everything that’s involved with being an academy student at Lamar University in an accelerated gifted and talented program. Our focus for Preview Day is to highlight all of those amazing things that exist here.”

Texas high school students interested in the program are able to attend the upcoming Preview Day on Feb. 7 on the LU campus or virtually on Feb. 17. Registration is open for both events and Thibodeaux said, “Applications are flying in, and we are excited about what is to come for the Texas Academy program here at LU.”
