D got accepted to Communication School - Advertising Program! Yippee!!

heinochus · 10-27-2009, 11:20 AM

Saw Monday morning that I was accepted in Cockrell (Biomedical.)

I had a statistically good app (1500+ SAT, top 5%) so that might have hurried things along.

Congrats to both of you!!!

Heinochus, that is huge getting accepted to biomedical engineering. I've heard it is the hardest major to get accepted into!!

This is such an asinine question, but I've just got to ask it... when is it that you start finding out about university scholarships?

foolforitaly · 10-27-2009, 11:03 PM

bacdgk---where did you get your info on SAT results taking 4 weeks? So you are saying the results released on this Thursday won't get to UT for a month???? I thought it was more like 3 days-2 weeks. Did you request them to be sent when your registered for the test?

I also requested my son's June and March ACT be sent........did that Oct. 19th........when do you think they will arrive?

foolforitaly · 10-27-2009, 11:09 PM

Do people double major honors programs...........like Plan II/Turing Scholars or Turing Scholars/BHP? Does anyone know someone in the Turing Scholars program and can give some feedback?

It only took 3 days for UT to receive my son's previous SAT scores. SAT indicates they sent the October test scores on Oct. 27, so I expect they will be received at UT by Oct. 30th. The ACT scores only took a few days as well.

As for the question about stats for those already admitted to McCombs--he was #2 and a friend who was also admitted was #13 (out of 750+). Good luck and Hook 'em.

buriedalie · 10-29-2009, 05:42 PM

foolforitaly - I can't speak to whether or not people pair those up, but I do know that Plan II is the only honors program that's actually a major in itself.

^ So is business honors program.

windowbob · 10-30-2009, 01:22 AM

If you sent your October SAT scores to UT, the scores have been received. Just checked and they're posted. Time to submit your apps!

Good luck and Hook 'em!

quick question--if you get accepted to natural science bio (declared 1st choice on app) but decide you want lib arts psych (declared second choice on app), how do you go about handling this?
