Spring/Fall 2016 Transfer Thread

@rach98n but then you can giver her some cake put on her favorite movie. USC was my dream school last year and I cried myself to to sleep. It would have been nice to have something to distract me and help me process the information.

@Ayeboy11 where did you hear that aVerage transfer gpa for RTF? I’ve looked and cant find that info for any moody majors.

@DestineeMoreh thank you! I really hope u get in for your major too! :slight_smile:

@NosyParent16 My stats changed on the 26th and my major is entry level biology

@PetroBear84
got denied. With 4.0 GPA, 2 LOR, all essays and solid resume with patents, publications, projects, interns related to petroleum industry.

@undercovergenius
hey, could you please share you situation like the GPA, TOEFL score, resume?

Really appreciate it

Hi @AndywantUTAustin . i was wondering did you get denied with a 4.0 or did PetroBear84 get denied? I have a 4.0 GPA and three letters of recommendations, a fairly good resume stacked with mission trips, sports, NHS, and volunteer activities. I applied to Moody as a Corporate Communications major, and after reading your post now I am worried. Thank you so much for your help.

@AndywantUTAustin How many hours did you have? How many of them were of the recommended courses? I would think Cockrell would weigh heavy on Math and Science courses?

@AndywantUTAustin sorry to hear that mate. I was nervous to check My Status but I’m still in review. If it doesn’t work out with Petro hopefully my second choice Civil will come through.

I feel as though I will never get a response even though it’s about to turn June. Should those over 30 hours expect something this coming week?

@AndywantUTAustin @kaiut19 I first applied for the spring 2016 semester with a better gpa than what I had for my fall 2016 application (which was accepted for my first choice major, physics). I also had two internships at national laboratories and 4 LORs. I was in the process of completing Eng Physics I, Chem II, and Calc II. Well, my application was rejected. I wasn’t given a reason but I assumed they wanted me to complete more courses since my stats were impeccable.

I ended up getting a C in Chem II and although I figured this ruined my chances, I applied again, this time with just 2 LORs, no changes to my essays, but I had nearly completed all recommended courses (I had completed ALL recommended math and science courses). I got Bs in Calc II, Calc III, Diff Eq, and Eng Phys II. This time, although my gpa decreased, they accepted me

I think completion of their recommended courses for transfer is key. If this doesn’t pertain to you then I am sorry. I don’t know what else could be the issue.

Is there anyone here that is a veteran or PACE or OOS or International student and it isn’t already specified on the list?

@Newsie2015 I’m OOS

@kaiut19
I got denied. I applied to engineering majors

@PetroBear84
Good luck to you. Hopefully you can get yours and share your situation. LOL.
I just don’t know how can be admitted since I was told there are around 20 positions for petroleum engineering.

@rockstardotb
Thank you for your website. I didn’t know that before. I didn’t have history and government. Maybe that’s the reason. LOL

UT’s Admission Twitter page posted that transfer applications would not be released until mid June.

I take that to mean the next wave of results for all of us non-4.0 students. I’d say if your results are still in review as of now, there’s definitely still hope. Hopefully sometime in the next two weeks the waiting game will be over!

Any new info or updates?

@Newsie2015 I’m a BIO major

Nothing new on my end :frowning:
