<p>@Danielkim3 hopefully you can get in. I think you have good GPA and good resume.</p>
<p>Still waiting. In review 16 days. Applied to RTF and COLA. The good news is the wait is bound to end soon.</p>
<p>I submitted my appeal yesterday, I’m just waiting for my transcript to get there for my maymaster course 
My GPA will go from a 3.5 to a 3.6. I was only rejected because I had to drop a class because of medical issues and it put me at 27 hours, so after this class I will be at 30! Hopefully I get in!!</p>
<p>Sigh i am starting to get a little discouraged because my application has been in review since May 20th and still no no word from UT. I have a 4.0 with 33 hours and 2 letters of recommendation with not bad essays, i just thought i was pretty qualified for the school of social work or COLA but its discouraging to not know anything yet. Hopefully they will tell me soon!!</p>
<p>I hope you guys appeal are successful. Please post in the official appeals group so kids next year can have hope about the appeals system</p>
<p>@pewpew13 social work takes awhile! Don’t be discouraged! Social work rolled out decisions the same time as Communications last year, and my friend with a 4.0 didn’t get accepted in Communication until mid June with me! Expect something next week for sure or the following Monday :)</p>
<p>I believe I was accepted June 12, 2013</p>
<p>This wait is killing me, guys! </p>
<p>Hey you guys have nothing on me… I’ve been in review since the second week of March… Haha</p>
<p>Just to make those impatient for wait. I know how you feel. I waited from August all the way to May for a response. Almost ripped my eyes out but wait was worth it</p>
<p>I have been reading this thread for months, but finally decided to make an account today because this suspense is killing me! So I am currently a female Active Duty Air Force member and will be a veteran if I attend the school in Fall 2014. I have 30-33 credit hours (not sure which classes they took, but I know it was enough) all from an online school. I’m not sure how that affects the outcome of admission, but I was pretty much forced to go online because of my military commitments/deployments. Also, an OOS (Florida) resident as well. My GPA is 3.4 or 3.6 depending on what they took for my completed classes. I have an amazing resume, 2 pretty good essays, and 1 LOR that directly addresses dealing with a stressful situation related directly to the field of study I applied for. I applied for COLA Psychology and then Social Work as my 2nd choice. I don’t know how much emphasis is placed on the resume, but that is definitely the strongest point of my package. I applied in January/Feb, had to take Spring classes to get enough hours (4.0 GPA for those 10 credits), sent my final transcript on May 8th, went into review on May 9th and I am still here waiting checking MyStatus about 50 times a day. I also check this thread frequently to see how others are doing. I will post as soon as I find out about my acceptance/rejection. Best of luck to you all!</p>
<p>Has anyone gotten their housing contract yet? I’ve been waiting about 5 weeks now…</p>

<p>@Golfing7861 - I spoke to housing yesterday. They are still sorting out the incoming Freshman spots as of now. They will send transfer contracts in July. </p>
<p>Just got rejected today :(</p>
<p>Stats that I applied with:
First choice: Computer Science; Second choice: Computer engineering
3.934 GPA with 45 hours from UT Dallas
Few ECs (mostly from high school)
1 outstanding letter of recommendation
Three ~8/10 essays</p>
<p>I’m going to try to appeal my rejection, but still, I never got anything lower than an A- and I was still rejected. Can’t believe how hard it is to get in these days.</p>
<p>@txforever but aren’t the housing preferences due before July 1st? If so, then how can we make the deadline on time if we aren’t even offered contracts before that.</p>
<p>I’ve also been checking on this thread for months, but seeing all these rejections is making me really nervous. Anyway, I guess I’ll post my stats and update you guys on what happens?
-GPA: 3.844, in-state university
-First Choice: Nursing
-Second Choice: COLA (BS-Psychology)
-ECs: About three from high school, and about five or six from college, including two honor fraternities/societies.
-(Honors/awards?: A good amount from high school, dean’s list from first year in college)
-Community Service: About 80-100 hours from high school and college (got many more afterwards, but I don’t think I could have included <em>planned</em> volunteer work, set past the March 1st deadline)
-Letters of Recommendation: Couldn’t get any in time
-Essays: Three pretty good essays that I spent a lot of time on.
-(Other: I don’t think it’ll really do anything, but to make myself appear more well-rounded and dedicated I also included some of my best digital art and photos at the end of the resume, mentioning that I’ve spent a very long time improving myself and my work, and that I was entirely self-taught.)
-Went into review last Friday, May 30th.</p>
<p>Well, good luck to all of us! I hope the admissions and appeals process goes well for everyone.</p>
<p>@Golfing7861 you’re right, its the deadline for housing and roomate preferences, so I want to say that it has to be this month with the last week of june being the latest. When I contacted them they said June for sure, and not to worry about not having a spot. Really wish it wasn’t a waiting game like it was with admissions, but I understand. Do you have a dorm preference?</p>
<p>@Savetherocks wow I can’t believe that you got rejected with that high GPA at UTD… which also has -,+ grading system… I’m sure they will let you in though if you appeal your rejection.</p>
<p>I have been rejected but had a question regarding the appeal process. Here are my credentials:</p>
<p>GPA: 3.967
- Honors College at Texas Tech University
- 41 hours credit (following UT engineering degree plan)
- Inducted into 2 honors clubs
- Society of Petroleum Engineers member
- etc…</p>
<p>I applied for PE first and ME as second choice.</p>
<p>My question is would it be worth my time to appeal? Since I submitted my application, I have been inducted into an honors fraternity and I am taking 2 core curriculum courses this summer: Calculus 3 and Early American Literature (these were not considered for admission) </p>
<p>Let me know if it would be worth my time because I plan on sending in an appeal tomorrow.</p>
<p>Thanks and good luck to all.</p>
