The history of the University of Texas at Arlington began with the foundation of Arlington College in 1895, which was the first of a series of private schools to exist on the site of the present university. Created largely due to the underfunded and generally inadequate public schools in the city, it closed in July 1902 after Arlington voters passed a proposition to create an independent school district. Carlisle Military Academy was established on the same site by Colonel James M. Carlisle in 1902. It was molded by Carlisle's educational philosophy, which balanced intellectualism with military training. Carlisle's financial problems resulted in the school entering receivership in 1911, and in 1913 the school closed. In September 1913, Arlington Training School was founded by H. K. Taylor. The school was beset by financial troubles and lawsuits, ultimately closing after the 1915–16 academic year. In 1916, Arlington Military Academy was founded by John B. Dodson, and it lasted for only one academic year.

Jack Woolf, president of ASC and UTA since 1959, resigned in 1968 and was succeeded by Frank Harrison; Harrison was president until 1972. UTA awarded its first master's degrees in 1968, all in engineering. Reby Cary, the university's first African-American administrator, was hired the following year.
