CLAUS] BUT WE HAVE SEEN A REMARKABLE RUN-UP IN STOCK PRICES. " - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Economic reports confirm that the U.S. and global economies began a robust expansion early in the autumn of 2003. We are finally seeing the results of the fiscal and monetary policies that were implemented to stimulate economic growth. The economy is benefiting from the lowest short-term interest rates in decades, reduced marginal tax rates, and increased government spending. Productivity has increased to its highest level in 20 years, and corporate America is starting once again to invest in capital goods and to add employees to its payrolls. Finally, American goods and services are more competitive in global markets because foreign currencies have gained strength over the U.S. dollar. All of these positive developments have translated into the growth of the gross domestic product (GDP) and improved corporate profitability, both of which have significantly driven up stock prices. So we're left with the obvious question: Can the economy keep growing fast enough and long enough to support existing equity valuations and to provide for higher stock prices? While no one can predict what will happen, we do believe that market volatility will remain the norm rather than the exception. We may not have reached the peak of the current cyclical bull market, but we have seen a remarkable run-up in stock prices. Consequently, we would not be surprised to see some form of 3 . . . C O N T I N U E D ========================-------------------------------------------------------- consolidation before stocks try to break through resistance levels - assuming, of course, that the economy keeps growing, more new jobs are created, corporate profitability continues to improve, and short-term rates (which are expected to increase in 2004) do not spike dramatically. Whatever happens, the most effective strategy in any market cycle is a well-thought-out investment plan that incorporates asset allocation, diversification, and a true understanding of your personal tolerance for risk - all matched to your investment goals. At USAA, we remain committed to helping you with your goals. We will continue to provide you with outstanding resources - a market-tested portfolio management team, world-class service, and no-load mutual funds without excessive fees, sales loads, or contractual plans. For all of us here at USAA, I would like to thank you for your business. Sincerely, /s/ Christopher W. Claus Christopher W.

The USAA Treasury Money Market Trust had a total return of 0.33% for the six-month period ended November 30, 2003. This compares to an average return of 0.17% for similar Treasury and repurchase agreement (repo) money market funds ranked by iMoneyNet, Inc. This performance placed the Fund in the top 6% of its peer group as ranked by iMoneyNet. WHAT WERE THE MAJOR DRIVERS OF THE FUND'S YIELD DURING THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD? The interest-rate policy of the Federal Reserve Board (the Fed), as well as the market's pricing of potential Fed moves, had the greatest impact. The Fed adjusted rates one time during the period, on June 25, 2003, cutting the federal funds rate from 1.25% to 1%. This move was widely anticipated, so the impact on the market was rather muted. The Fund's yield reflects the fact that the federal funds rate is currently at a 45-year low. PAST PERFORMANCE IS NO GUARANTEE OF FUTURE RESULTS. IMONEYNET, INC. RANKED THE FUND 5 OUT OF 90 TREASURY RETAIL MONEY MARKET FUNDS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2003. 8 . . . C O N T I N U E D =========================------------------------------------------------------- COMMENTARY on the Fund HOW DID YOU MANAGE THE FUND IN THIS ENVIRONMENT? The Fund continued to pursue a dual strategy to maximize yield while maintaining flexibility to respond to changing market conditions. To stabilize the yield in the low-rate environment, we invested in a portfolio of U.S. Treasury securities with maturities from one month to one year. The remaining assets were invested in repos (backed by Treasury securities). To provide the highest possible yield for shareholders, we continually looked for opportunities to buy Treasuries and lengthen the Fund's maturity when market conditions warranted. Looking forward, we think the economic recovery will continue to strengthen, which will eventually lead to higher interest rates. This should be reflected in the Fund's yield. HOW DOES THE FUND MANAGE TO OUTPERFORM ITS PEER GROUP WHEN INTEREST RATES ARE SO LOW? We are generally able to seize opportunities in the Treasury market, and our low expense ratio provides more income to pass on to you, our shareholders. We're doing all we can as managers to support the Fund's yield, while keeping in mind that the primary purpose of money market funds is to provide liquidity and stability. We thank you for the confidence you've placed in us. We're working hard every day to continue to earn your trust.

SEE ACCOMPANYING NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. 16 N O T E S ==========---------------------------------------------------------------------- to FINANCIAL Statements USAA TREASURY MONEY MARKET TRUST NOVEMBER 30, 2003 (UNAUDITED) (1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- USAA INVESTMENT TRUST (the Trust), registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, is a diversified, open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust consisting of nine separate funds. The information presented in this semiannual report pertains only to the USAA Treasury Money Market Trust (the Fund). The Fund's investment objective is to provide maximum current income while maintaining the highest degree of safety and liquidity. A. SECURITY VALUATION - The value of each security is determined (as of the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange on each business day the exchange is open) as set forth below: 1. Pursuant to Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, securities in the Fund are stated at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Repurchase agreements are valued at cost. 2. Securities for which valuations are not readily available or are considered unreliable are valued in good faith at fair value, using methods determined by USAA Investment Management (the Manager), an affiliate of the Fund, under valuation procedures and procedures to stabilize net asset value approved by the Trust's Board of Trustees. B. FEDERAL TAXES - The Fund's policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its income to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. C. INVESTMENTS IN SECURITIES - Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Gain or loss from sales of investment securities is computed on the identified cost basis. Interest income is recorded daily on the 17 N O T E S ==========---------------------------------------------------------------------- to FINANCIAL Statements (continued) USAA TREASURY MONEY MARKET TRUST NOVEMBER 30, 2003 (UNAUDITED) accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on securities are amortized over the life of the respective securities, using the straight-line method. D. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS - The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with commercial banks or recognized security dealers. These agreements are collateralized by obligations issued or guaranteed as to both principal and interest by the U.S. government, its agencies, or its instrumentalities. Obligations pledged as collateral are required to maintain a value equal to or in excess of the resale price of the repurchase agreement and are held by the Fund, either through its regular custodian or through a special "tri-party" custodian that maintains separate accounts for both the Fund and its counterparty, until maturity of the repurchase agreement. The Fund's Manager monitors the creditworthiness of sellers with which the Fund may enter into repurchase agreements. E. EXPENSES PAID INDIRECTLY - Through fee-offset arrangements with certain of the Fund's service providers, realized credits, if any, are used to reduce the Fund's expenses. For the six-month period ended November 30, 2003, these fee-offset arrangements reduced the Fund's expenses by $3,000. F. USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. (2) LINES OF CREDIT - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Fund participates with other USAA funds in two joint, short-term, revolving, committed loan agreements totaling $500 million: $400 million with USAA Capital Corporation (CAPCO), an affiliate of the Manager, and $100 million with Bank of America. The purpose of the agreements 18 N O T E S ==========---------------------------------------------------------------------- to FINANCIAL Statements (continued) USAA TREASURY MONEY MARKET TRUST NOVEMBER 30, 2003 (UNAUDITED) is to meet temporary or emergency cash needs, including redemption requests that might otherwise require the untimely disposition of securities. Subject to availability under its agreement with CAPCO, the Fund may borrow from CAPCO an amount up to 5% of the Fund's total assets at CAPCO's borrowing rate with no markup. Subject to availability under its agreement with Bank of America, the Fund may borrow from Bank of America, at Bank of America's borrowing rate plus a 0.50% markup, an amount which, when added to outstanding borrowings under the CAPCO agreement, does not exceed 25% of the Fund's total assets. The USAA funds that are party to the loan agreements are assessed facility fees in aggregate by Bank of America in an annual amount equal to 0.09% of the $100 million loan agreement, whether used or not, and by CAPCO based on the funds' assessed proportionate share of CAPCO's operating expenses related to obtaining and maintaining CAPCO's funding programs in total (in no event to exceed 0.09% annually of the $400 million loan agreement). The facility fees are allocated among the funds based on their respective average net assets for the period. The Fund had no borrowings under either of these agreements during the six-month period ended November 30, 2003. (3) DISTRIBUTIONS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The tax basis of distributions and accumulated undistributed net investment income will be determined based upon the Fund's tax year- end of May 31, 2004, in accordance with applicable tax law. Net investment income is accrued daily as dividends and distributed to shareholders monthly. Distributions of realized gains from security transactions not offset by capital losses are made annually in the succeeding fiscal year or as otherwise required to avoid the payment of federal taxes. 19 N O T E S ==========---------------------------------------------------------------------- to FINANCIAL Statements (continued) USAA TREASURY MONEY MARKET TRUST NOVEMBER 30, 2003 (UNAUDITED) (4) TRANSACTIONS WITH MANAGER - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A.

ADMINISTRATIVE AND SERVICING FEES - The Manager provides certain administrative and shareholder servicing functions for the Fund. For such services, the Manager receives a fee accrued daily and paid monthly at an annualized rate of 0.10% of the Fund's average net assets. For the six-month period ended November 30, 2003, the Fund incurred administrative and servicing fees, paid or payable to the Manager, of $100,000. C. TRANSFER AGENT'S FEES - USAA Transfer Agency Company, d/b/a USAA Shareholder Account Services, an affiliate of the Manager, provides transfer agent services to the Fund based on an annual charge of $25.50 per shareholder account plus out-of-pocket expenses.

UNDERWRITING SERVICES - The Manager provides exclusive underwriting and distribution of the Fund's shares on a continuing best-efforts basis.
