The high school that sends the most students to the University of Texas at Austin is Westwood H S
- Westwood H S in Austin, Texas sends 90 graduates per class year to the University of Texas at Austin. That is first of 130 schools whose published lists name the university, and the count comes from its Class of 2026 list.
- LASA H S, also in Austin, is second with 54 per class year.
- On the acceptances side, a separate list, LASA H S is first with 87 admissions per class year.
Many high schools publish a matriculation list. That is the school's own list of where its graduates enrolled in college. We rank those lists by students per class year. That means the count the school printed, divided by the number of class years the list covers. So a one-year list and a five-year list can sit on the same page.
The school at the top
Westwood H S is a public high school in Austin. Its published list names the University of Texas at Austin 90 times. The school says that list covers the Class of 2026. One class year, 90 students. That works out to 90 per class year, the highest of any school we can read.

What the table shows
Every one of these 10 schools is in Texas. Three of them are in Austin, the city where the university sits. The other seven are in Houston, Plano, Dallas, Addison, The Woodlands and Round Rock, with two schools in Dallas. The two schools at the very top are both Austin public schools. Third place goes to St. John's School in Houston, at 19.4 per class year, from a list of 97 students across five graduating classes.
What absence means
A school that is not on this list did not publish a numbered matriculation list we could read. That is all absence means. It is never a statement about that school's graduates. Lists of acceptances, where students were admitted rather than enrolled, are ranked on their own and are never mixed in.
The data is each school's own published list. Counts are shown as the school printed them. Class years are shown as the school states them. The ranking is for each graduating class.
