Spring/Fall 2016 Transfer Thread

@cjr1234 Correct. It’s best to get everything out of the way (LOR’s, essays, resume, etc.) and pre-order your spring transcript so that they are sent to UT right away. I mean you could try to send in your fall transcript but they’ll just list it as ‘incomplete’ until they get your spring grades.

Sunday is my bday. I can’t decide if I want to know by then. If I don’t get into RTF i’ll probably just eat some Ben n Jerrys and watch Scrubs. If I do get in, then I’m buying a burnt orange cake!

@cherry018 haha I still remember you trying sneak into a 18+ party and you waiting in my car because they wouldnt let you in

@LostTraveler lol I’ve given up on calling admissions because every time I do I get some ambiguous answer

@mcs1996 @cherry018 awesome, that’s what I will do then! thanks so much!

@Newsie2015 Oh don’t remind me lol. But hey, I got in another party hosted by that same frat at that same exact place a couple months later. I just remember giving the sleazy creepy security dude major stink eye because he didn’t even bother to check my ID after I turned 18.

one of the admission person was so mean. I called the office like few months ago and she was like giving ambigous informations

@cherry018 what major did you apply to and what’s your GPA?

@TexasLonghorn12 I think they’re probably sick of people calling them freaking out about the June 15 deadline lol

@EaglesThunder35 3.66, Mechanical Engineering. My GPA is not impressive so I’m just waiting for my acceptance to COLA Undeclared.

I’m 28 right now but depending on when I get a decision I might be 29 XD lol.

@BladesofGlory which college are you trying to get into

I can only imagine what types of calls the admission office is getting. They are probably just saying anything at this point

Every year its like this or its only this year?

Hey guys so I just got accepted to COLA-Governmemt which was my first choice (International relation was my second choice major) I was a CAP student at UTA so there’s that if there is any questions I can answer please let me know. Also you have 7 days to pay your enrollment deposit once you get accepted. I have until Next Thursday the 16th A friend of mine got in June 5th and he has until June 12th to pay the deposit.

I checked Mystatus around 4:30pm I went int9 review last night around the 8:00 hour. The only reason why I figured I would get in today is because another CAP student from UTA got in with the same major as me.

@DestineeMoreh Congrats!!

@DestineeMoreh congrats!

GUYS! I just got my acceptance into my first choice school!! College of Communications Journalism!!! I never knew this day would come! I can’t believe it.

Went to HS in Austin and got CAP when I applied the first time around. I decided to go to the university of Colorado my freshman year and had… not very good grades - 3.1 and 2.9.
Sophomore year (fall 2015) I worked a part time job, I was living in for my sorority, and pulled my GPA up with 16 credits + lab to a 3.6. Wrote a lot about issues I went through freshman year in my essays. 0 LOR.

I’m from Austin so I went to ACC this last semester (spring 2016) when I transferred home due to financial issues. I got a 4.0 with 10 credits while working full time as a shift leader at my job (I’m 19 so maybe they took that into consideration too). I sent in my transcript to admissions even though I heard somewhere that they didn’t look at spring grades (I don’t remember where from though!)

Seriously guys I had no idea I would have a chance at being accepted but I think my less than stellar stats prove that they do look at applications holistically! I was so negative about this whole thing so take it from me just try to be positive and hope for the best! Good luck everyone :slight_smile:

Congrats @DestineeMoreh !!

HOLY MOLY, guys I just got accepted into Moody for RTF, I’m actually shaking right now I was so nervous I didnt think I was going to get in.

I was a CAP student at UT Tyler, my gpa was a 3.8, 30 hrs, 2 LOR, 2 essays and a resume with work I had done in high school related to this field. I’m actually surprised I got in. I had been checking mystatus frequently and I just decided to look at it a few minutes ago and boom!

Congrats to everyone else who has been accepted and best of wishes to all!
