It's always been my dream to attend UT Austin, but I am not in the top 10%. To be completely honest, I've pretty much put no effort into school whatsoever these last few years because I'm generally a good test taker and I usually made A-B's in my classes anyways. Obviously my laziness has done nothing but hurt me, therefore I don't have automatic admission. At this point I'm basically relying on the CAP program.


I'm in the 25th percentile at my school, rank is ~150, SAT score was 1770(600 reading, 630 writing, 540 math) and I plan on taking two more SAT's and hopefully raise my score seeing as I didn't study at all whatsoever the first time I took it. I've taken at least 2-3 AP classes every year, I was in baseball for 2 years, Criminal Justice Club for 3 and will be an officer this year. I was in Boy Scouts for around 10 years as well.

Oh, and there's about 650-700 students at my school. I'm choosing a Texas school specifically because I have the Texas Tomorrow plan and have 2 years tuition at a community college as well as 2 years tuition at a 4 year university paid off. Also, I'm aware my stats suck lol.

im planning on doing the cap program for ut Austin and going to utsa for the first year and I was wondering what are my chances of getting into the school of architecture if I get transferred. how high would my gpa have to be. and what about civil engineering. are those two hard to get in?
