flag UNT is cutting 70+ programs due to a $45M budget gap, ending new admissions in affected degrees like linguistics and women’s studies.

flag The University of North Texas is cutting or consolidating over 70 academic programs, minors, and certificates due to a $45 million budget shortfall, including eliminating linguistics bachelor’s degrees and a women’s and gender studies master’s program. flag The changes stem from declining enrollment, rising costs, and low student numbers in some programs, with the linguistics department merging into the Department of World Languages, Literatures and Cultures by September 1. flag Students already enrolled can finish their degrees, but no new admissions will be accepted. flag The move reflects broader financial and political pressures in Texas on higher education, though UNT did not link the cuts directly to state mandates.
