<p>ok. would you know if establishing Tex. residency would make it easier to get scholarships and such <em>IF</em> i am admitted?</p>
<p>And btw, I am seriously considering UT too, but I am scared that the enormous student body and classes will make intro. sciences classes very hard (intensive weeder classes). Would this be the case at UT? And how are the “weeder” classes at Rice, if there are any?</p>
