Texas A&M Class of 2028 Official Thread

Also applied directly to Galveston for Oceans and One Health major on 1/10 and was accepted two days ago. Guess she’s getting two Howdy packets!

Applied 8/1 Construction Science & still in review.

My son got the 3 choices today.
A little surprised because he has almost identical stats as my full admit son from 2 years ago who was admitted December 1 2021.
Applied early August
Bio medical, biochemistry
1340 sat
1st quarter- 12%
4 year varsity athlete
Lots of volunteer, leadership, career focused extracurricular

I think he has decided on another small school that has made him a great offer. My other son will miss him at A&M.

So gut wrenching.

What’s the difference at this point of getting the notice vs still being under review? Got the notice today.

What notice?

OMGGGGGGGG. The options are out! My son just got the 3 choices… on a SATURDAY! TEAM, baby!!! Thank you, Jesus!

As someone who got PSA in 2022, I would much rather be getting the three options about this time. I remember back then the big wave of people getting the three options and wondering if that was good or bad for me as I was still in review. Turns out, it wasn’t good.

The 3 choices in AIS. Blinn team, waitlist or both. Anyone ever get in from waitlist?

I’ve read the last couple of years threads this week preparing for what’s next. It does appear some get in who go on the waitlist, but it seems like a small number and, as we’ve all learned even to this point, the wait is excruciating.

If you want in, I would suggest selecting Blinn Team. My son had a few friends that chose waitlist last year, and although they were admitted (pretty late), they could only select from a short list of majors and none were the ones they wanted.

I agree. A girl I know chose waitlist only and ended up getting a PSA offer in March.

Ok
So now there is an email, it’s the same letter we got after completing the application. Application acknowledgment. Shows just like the other one in Letters. ???
It’s tell us to establish Net ID with the the UIN etc.
Not sure what to do

@Famfam123 You should receive an Admissions letter about Gateway in the next couple of days. This does not sound like that letter.

Agreed,
It’s a duplicate with same number.
:thinking:

I got the options today too! What are the chances of being rejected from TEAM if I selected TEAM only?

The “experts” can chime in but definitely don’t hear of this happening last year.

7 tabs today!

DS applied via Common App and noted First Choice: Business

However the portal has
Choice 1 ->General Studies → Major: General Studies ->Degree BAC

Is that still the Business School? We didn’t realize until seeing it on CC that you had to apply very early to get a seat in the business school.

Did the term change to Summer 2024? If so, this looks like a gateway offer. Congrats either way!
