Did you look at the link I provided? About GPA not being important?

[Application Review | Be a Longhorn](http://bealonghorn.utexas.edu/freshmen/decisions/review)

"Holistic Review

The Office of Admissions uses holistic review:

To determine which major automatically admitted applicants will be admitted to
To make admission decisions for all applicants who are not automatically admitted to the university (i.e., Texas applicants who do not qualify for automatic admission, out-of-state applicants, and international applicants)


WHAT WE CONSIDER DURING HOLISTIC REVIEW

During holistic review, we consider academic achievement, personal achievement, and special circumstances.

Academic Achievement
Class Rank
Test Scores
High School Coursework

Personal Achievement
Written Essays
Activities Information (Your Resume)
Recommendations

Special Circumstances "

I don’t think students can major in advertising and minor in PR at UT.

[Minors | College of Communication](http://communication.utexas.edu/students/policies/minors)

Minor has to be outside of College of Communication.
And I believe students cannot double major in Advertising and PR though they can chose major in another department within the college.
