which UT-K social media sites do you recommend we monitor?.. FB, IG, X?.. not even sure if those exists…I would think that they would post it on the official UT website, but… TIA
There are UTK admissions pages on Instagram and FB.
Not the main UT-K page. Do the UT-K admissions page on faceook. I will post on here as soon as they post something official.
Thanks… I figured you’re all over that one… I appreciate all the intel! You’re a true help to each of us. Good luck on your future endeavors.
from the UT-K site:
“You will receive an email instructing you to check your Go Vols Portal once we’ve made an admissions decision!”
First Year Student Applications - Undergraduate Admissions - University of Tennessee, Knoxville).
My daughter (OOS) was invited to apply to be a Haslam Leadership Scholar. Any idea if this is an indication that she should be admitted? And I talked to a regional admissions director this morning who said that they have not been given the final date for EA release yet.
Would love to know the same!
I was looking through some of our emails with the admissions rep from when we submitted my student’s application. They mentioned that they’ll be “reaching out to students in early January with regards to decisions.”
They have said mid-december, but maybe they changed it.
Were you early action?
Also received and it can’t be bad, but I think we’re all guessing as to who gets in this year, given how popular UTK has become. Also, being OOS, the odds of getting it are basically zero. I looked up last year’s Haslam scholars, and they were all from TN.
Is that for EA? I saw they said mid-December for EA and mid-January for RD.
Yes, we applied EA.
Isn’t the definition of Mid-December 12/10-12/19???
From their website, EA “Release Date” is mid-December. I’m sure they’re more swamped than they expected so hopefully it’ll be this week before they head out on winter break. I can’t even imagine the long days the folks reading all of the applications are going thru.
IMO the term “mid” is ambiguous and allows for some latitude. For example, I’d like to think I’m still in my mid-50’s but someone else might politely disagree!! lol
What is the Just for You?
It is a tab/page on the UTK portal with information targeted to you. Extra applications/scholarships you might be eligible for.
Verbatim from the counselor for my 2 daughters who applied early action. This was the response to my email to them earlier today
“ We are not currently sharing a specific date of release, but we are still committed to a December release. I would feel confident in sharing that an update should be coming this week.”
Thanks
Hang in there everybody ! It all works put i have had at least 2 colleges where one daughter got accepted the other is still being evaluated. No point in worrying. Enjoy the holidays
