Inter89 same hear. They simply don't care that the applicants that they are dealing with are waiting anxiously for a decision. Many (like myself) are waiting for Tamu's decision. This single decision whether good or bad will have a huge impact on our lives! If we were denied wouldn't it make since that we would find out sooner rather than later so we can move on? I would be furious if I found out I was denied after waiting 5 MONTHS!!! This process has been unbearable and whether I get in or not I'm going to write a letter to Tamu admissions to let them know how untimely, unprofessional, and unorganized thier transfer admissions process has been to me and thousands of others.

All that agree say Amen!!!

How's it been 5 months? Application deadline was March 15. They didn't evaluate any applications until after that date, and I thought OAR made that pretty clear. I received my decision in under two months. That's about the same amount of time UT took. Deadline Jan 15 - decisions announced around April 15.

He's just saying that if they end up considering his spring grades and wait until July to deny him it would be pretty horrible.

And it HAS already been two and a half months with no correspondence at all other than an acknowledgment of application letter. It wouldn't surprise me if they started looking spring grades for reconsideration June 1 and took another month and a half after that to make final decisions.

I'm pretty ****ed that they tell me a decision was made two weeks ago but not only can't they tell me what the decision was but they can't even tell me WHEN they will send me the decision.

ampzor,
I talked to both ME advisers today and I was told even though classes are closed on howdy they will make room for the transfer students admitted for summer and fall. I'm gonna be taking Cal III and ENGR 111-112 during the summer. In the fall looks like MEEN 221-222, MATH 308 (diff eq), ECEN 215, and maybe CVEN 305. Its going to work out well for me. Hopefully when you get admitted it will work out too.

agfa - I sent in my app. on January 5th. So that means I've been waiting January, February, March, April, and now the end of May. Roughly 5 months or 146 freakin days!

This is the quote of the day: "They didn't evaluate any applications until after that date, and I thought OAR made that pretty clear." - agfa

First of all I knew that and second of all,when has anything that any person from Tamu admissions said ever been CLEAR?

I'm still not sure what I need to do to make sure my application is reconsidered, my spring grades arrived according to AIS. Who should I call to make sure they do it (Econ LA)? What should I expect my AIS to do? Go back to step 3?

And what are the realistic chances of getting accepted after I have been declined? 3.0 67 hours.

Splinter, I called L.A. after I was denied and found out they had my wrong GPA (I had a 3.0 but they had me down with a 2.84) so they told me to call admissions and they fixed it and emailed L.A. to tell them about the mistake and then they accepted me today. So I think you'll have a really good chance, good luck!

splinter · 05-27-2009, 05:01 PM

^^^ wow. Who EXACTLY did you call, what was the number? What did you say?

Did they tell you over the phone you where excepted? How long till you were informed?

I'm in the same exact position as you... so I need all the details exact.. lol

TAMU's computer science department advisors are very good.... they reply to ur email with few minutes.... i emailed them twice and got replied withing few minutes... as far as step 3 is concerned.... they told me they are still working on my application and hopefully they will have something soon ....

famoussas668 · 05-27-2009, 09:03 PM

Splinter, I'll send you a PM explaining everything when I get home and find the phone numbers.

Outcast19 · 05-27-2009, 10:09 PM

Step 3 still waiting on aero. called admissions and the department. Admissions told me to talk to Aero, and the Aero department transferred my call to an advisor that wasn't there answer the call....I left a message with my cell number and email and asked them to give me an update on what the hell is going on...nothing. Gonna call again tomorrow....

ampzor · 05-27-2009, 10:19 PM

Thats not as bad as having them tell you that they don't have you on the list of transfer applicants.
