Would it be better for a CS applicant to submit an 800M 740RW (1540) or a 790M 770RW (1560)?

Do you think A&M's ETAM program is worth it? (I want to major in comp sci)

I know someone who got into Engineering even though he applied past the deadline.

I had a 4.0 at UArk and I got denied from the business school. Didn’t have crazy extracurriculars but I was in the leadership program and had pretty good academic backing. Appealing

I was accepted as a transfer class of 2027 (starting in fall 2024) and about a week before my decision the what I owe popped on my portal along with housing registration

Regarding the Rec Letters: How a kid who is very involved in school activities can get a Rec Letter from outside of the school! we are talking about kids! this is absurd!

They won't let my Facebook account work for nobody to know all tv are recorded before 9-11 and thry Bern dead let's go to the presidential race I bet nobody is there and then at thst thry said we false not true

What about automatic admits? Will the SAT become a hurdle or will they simply not consider it for those top 6% students?

I had an X on my portal checklist for one of my transcripts THE ENTIRE TIME and it didn’t show it was ever under review. I assumed one of my transcripts hadn’t come in on time so I didn’t count on UT being a possible college I’d get into. I lost my mind when I got an email on JUNE 21ST SAYING I GOT IN. I had already signed a lease in college station and I was so upset. As of now I cannot attend UT because I can’t get out of my lease in college station.

I still haven't gotten my decision - UT Admission said there was a transfer error between UT and an old community college transcript, so the person that helped me said there are still other people who are waiting to get decisions as well. It has been... a journey waiting for decision

I’d really like to hear more stat about biology majors… I’m currently appealing

I got denied from Aerospace Engineering Transfer. 4.0 GPA from San Antonio College. 8 honors classes. 10 years experience working at Boeing as a mechanic and machinist. Own a small business manufacturing aircraft and firearms parts. Build and operate CNC machines and 3d printers. 5 years experience CAD, CAM. I thought for sure I would have got in.

Hey what about for Biology BS majors, what GPA did you see that was often accepted/rejected?

Thank you Kevin! With the help of your blog, I got admitted to Cockrell as a transfer student-this has been my dream school forever and I’m so happy that it’s finally happening 🤘🏽

How do they choose non-auto admittees? It seems like there is no rhyme or reason. Kids definitely ranked lower than my child, without flashy activities, were offered admission.

Is CAP offered to EVERY rejected in-state applicant?

Will they continue to not take superscores or will they superscore?

Some people got this message in the portal "We need more time to review your appeal. You will have an update by April 12." Did anyone get this message in previous years?

UT is a very racist Jim Crow school, they want white only students.

Chose UT over NYU for business. Hopefully this is a good decision considering the future for finance in Austin

Thank you for all your information. So, so helpful. Also read your book. Very informative for my daughter applying to UT Austin as an out of state student (from California).

Did you mention that you have already seen some people getting in through appeals this year?

Will this apply to Transfer students as well?

Can you link the press release you're getting the info from?

My son had an error on his application and his test score didn’t merge. He appealed(he was offered CAP) so while we aren’t holding our breath, we are not giving up hope.

when is the right time to apply?plsss answer anybody

My son applied to Architecture-Archi Engineering dual degree course and was CAPped. He already submitted his appeal to ask reconsideration. He also asked if he could change his major into architectural engineering. In your video, you listed 'civil engineering' as one of less competitive engineering majors. Do you think he would better add civil engineering for his 3rd choice? I don't know which is more competitive between civil and architectural engineering majors.

Can we try internel major transfer inside of Engineering undergraduated school during freshman or 2nd grade?

My son got into UT as undeclared liberal arts. His first choice was mccombs ‘s business school. Now he is OK to join economics. Will he be given an opportunity to choose economics as major? Or un declared means they will decide what he can take?

How does UT view a High School DE (through UT's program) grade of 90 on an external transfer application? Is that a 3.75 or a 4.0 in the calculation of that applicant's college GPA?

I wanna major in Statistics and Data Science (under college of natural sciences) and I got CAPPED. Having said that, if I meet the GPA and coursework requirement at a different UT school, does it guarantee me admission at my desired major at UT Austin in my sophomore year?

Could you please tell about the Honors (Dean’s Scholar) decision. Is it coming out after getting the general acceptance letter?

You didn’t spend time with PACE - is this rare? Daughter was offered this.

For international students UT is a joke. All my firends will perfect stats and extracurriculars did not get accepted. Really depressing

For CAP is economics guaranteed as its liberal arts? I heard it wasn't but wasn't sure.

I got rejected into my first choice major in McCombs, what should I do?

When can we expect Turing Scholars decision?

Thanks for these videos, your AMA and blog posts. They really helped us through the process.

Sir I have also applied to UT Austin the status was completed after 8 November and now my status shows in review I saw on the University website that those complete after 8 November would be interviewed in February and their result would be given on ist march is it right sir.and please tell me what dates of February are UT Austin conducts interview .

I also got rejected from my business major. There is no waitlisting, what should I do now

I accidentally accepted my auto-admission offer back in November, but I just got rejected from my major. Is there a deadline I have to now decline by? I think I'm still going to appeal, so I'll be waiting on that too...

My son is a junior - rank 12 weighted GPA 4.37. What AP classes would you recommend to take over this school year or over summer in UT high school online classes. He wants to do this to improve rank and to make attractive transcript.

So I have a higher gpa and rank than the student in the video. I haven't done the act yet I'll do it this fall. But my extracurriculars arent on this kind of level. I am very worried my extracurriculars arent going to cut it mostly because I started doing my ECs in junior year or in the summer. Online school during covid prevented me from doing any ECs in 9th grade and in 10th grade I was trying to adjust being in high school. Essentially t felt like a freshman experience in 10th grade even though I was a sophomore. I also tried to focus more on my grades to fix them up after a mediocre freshman year. Will I be able to explain why I did extracurricular rather late in my highschool life? I am also hoping for mech engineering in either ut austin or texas a&m. Also applying to UTD for comp sci rather than engineering since I'm pretty interested in it though not on the level of interest as in engineering. I'm really just hoping I wont be immediately rejected because I didnt do research or internships (might have an internship senior year but that's too late for it to matter). Really hoping you to hear whati should work on in my resume or application.

Besides test scores, gpa, although they are important I feel like your story that you write on the essay is just as important

If I am currently still waiting for my admission decision. Is it too late to input a second major as backup?

Do you know if any transfer students have received an admission decision yet? Thanks

What happens if you miss transfer deadline

Hi I am an international student (non-resident) got offer letter for petroleum engineering in UT Austin.. but now I changed my mind to ELECTRICAL N COMPUTER ENGINEERING.. Is that possible to change my major before I got enrolled? or better to enroll first n appeal later I join?

Wish I'd seen this channel earlier before I got rejected from both top majors as auto. :( Now I have no idea what to do, UT was my dream. I have some international awards to put for appeals but it's literally gambling with 0 luck.
