Hi everyone! I applied for Fall 2016 transfer to the College of Education applied learning & development major. Has anyone else applied to the College of Education? I applied on January 1st and I’m getting so impatient haha. I was accepted to A&M in March, so now I’m just waiting to hear UT’s admission decision…
HI everyone! I applied for Fall 2016 transfer to the Cockrell School of Engineering [1st Choice: Chemical Engineering & 2nd Choice: Mechanical Engineering], I applied on January 1st, I’m from Mexico and I just wanted to check if someone knows around which date will I get UT’s admissions decision?.. Good luck to all!
@kdeez3 I applied as my second choice major and have not heard back yet. I don’t think any major has heard back yet, not to worry! 
Hi all! On Twitter, I found that one person has already been accepted as a transfer to UT’s Fine Arts program.
i saw that, and it looks like it was posted the 1st? that seems super early but then again i’ve scoured this forum and haven’t found many applying to fine arts.
did anyone else apply to Public Relations for fall 2016?
I have applied for Fine Arts (B.A. in Theater and Dance) and I have not heard anything yet. What was their major?
Theater and Dance as well!
Interesting! Hope that doesn’t mean bad news for me!
It most likely just takes them awhile to get through everyone; I wouldn’t worry!!
Actually, I think that acceptance is a fake. His letter is signed by UT President Bill Powers who is no longer UT President as of 2015. The current president who would’ve signed is Gregory Fenves.
I think this may have been an April Fool’s joke.
To add onto it’s lack of authenticity, he says he is part of the class of '18, but the link on the letter brings him to the class of '19 page.
Hahah I was thinking maybe it could be! Darn, I was fooled though.
This is from the UT Austin Reddit on what to expect for admissions decisions, for everyone who keeps asking:
"Regarding external transfers with more than 30 credit hours and the appropriate pre reqs (if required) met…
What you saw is correct, June 15th is the date they expect to have all decisions out by and they put that there as a sort of “if you haven’t heard anything, that’s about when you should call us and ask” thing.
This isn’t the date decisions are actually released. Applications for transfer students, from what I understand, are filtered by admissions for certain things like minimum qualifications then sent to the individual colleges for consideration. The college your application is sent to is contingent on your 1st and 2nd major selection (your applicant info is sent to both). The colleges themselves make decisions based on your qualifications and their available space. Spring transfer info comes out earlier than the expected dates often because there’s fewer applicants and less space. Fall applications take longer because there are more spaces to fill (graduated students left, etc) and more applicants. Some schools within UT (like Jackson I think) only take transfer applications for Fall.
Beginning in April, the colleges within UT are sent applicant info and decisions begin to roll out following April 15th ish but it’s really whenever you get it you get it. The earliest college that sends out acceptance info is COLA (College of Liberal Arts) and also Cockrell sends rejections pretty fast but no one likes to talk about that hehe 
So those happen about April 16 - 20th. Other schools take a looooong time to release decisions, and they roll them out within 24 hours of the individual decision being made as opposed to releasing them all on X date. The admissions office isn’t going to have an answer to “when will I hear back?” because they don’t know when each college is making the decisions until they start getting tons of calls about them. If you check college confidential for aa good 3-4 years back (y’all… look, I have a lot of free time when I can’t sleep) it’s rarely if ever before April 15th and often lasts all the way into late June.
tl;dr April 15th onwards til June. People have complained every year about the “I only get 8 weeks of notice?!” thing and… well it is what it is. If you have any other school/life deadlines to meet before mid to late June, I suggest you plan on attending to them."

@cocobardot I applied to the College of Fine Arts too as a BFA Theatre Studies transfer. I haven’t heard back either!
@BlueMoonArmy I am aware too of all the things you stated. I spend a lot of my free time scouring for any bit of information I can find. However, I find solace in coming to this thread. Yes, I know our decisions haven’t been made yet, but coming here and joining the fun of speculation eases the anxiety quite a bit. We’re are all in this snake pit called “the wait” together! I’m still secretly crossing my fingers that my and my husbands decisions will be soon. Unrealisitic? …Maybe, but it’s fun.
@BlueMoonArmy good post. I think everyone comes on here to see if anyone has received notice of their admission decision and for what college/major, that’s it. For the people who come on here and ask the dreaded “chance me” question, enough already. As its been stated plenty of times before, none of us in this forum know anything about UT’s Admissions Matrix of selecting students. If you have above a 3.0 GPA you have a chance. Many people with perfect or near perfect GPA’s have been declined admissions. Let’s stop it already with the “chance me” questions and just post your admission decision when received if you are kind enough to do so. Good Luck to All!
Who did you all ask to write your recommendation letters? I’ve asked my learning psychology professor, adviser and Biology teacher so far but they aren’t able to right now 
My Chemistry and communication professor helped me wrote one. You shud hv asked them to do it earlier before the deadline. It took my prof a month to submit them lol. But still they manage to submit it in Feb @chlphil
@BladeX Yeah I should have gave them more time to write it but I am applying for the spring 2017 semester.
