NOTABLE STUDENT
Samuel Camarillo| Mexico| Doublebass
Performance
My name is Samuel Camarillo and I’m from
Acapulco, México. I highly recommend coming
to the U.S. and studying at UNT for many
reasons.
For starters, the University of North Texas
provides students with an excellent level of
education and is one of the largest universities
in Texas.
I also recommend UNT because students have
many opportunities for scholarships and
financial aid. As an international student, I
could apply for the Mexican Waiver, which
allows students born in Mexico to pay In-state
Tuition.
One of the best things about UNT is that you
can get in touch with people very easily. There
are many organizations in which you can meet
other people and help your community.
I chose UNT because it offers students with
necessary tools to succeed.
