University of Tennessee Early Action for Fall 2024 Admission

Yes, because people are totally photoshopping pictures of their UTK portal in their free time lol

So i guess lots of moms here have tons of time to photoshop fake UTK sites…you know… to mess with their own stressed out kid to pretend he/she maybe got in? Yeah that sounds way more likely

hahah I just wrote the same thing

So when you mentioned the whole SRAR = deferral thing what did he say?

Oh no! The secret is out. Some of us with portal changes this morning conspired to trick you all.

Yeah which is fine. Again - it’s fine - like I told him it’s no big deal. He could have left it as - ā€œdecisions have not been released yet, so please dont read into anythingā€ or something like that.

If one gets deferred, when will one get a final decision? I would assume no later than late February which is what they posted for Regular Decision release date, yes? But a decision could trickle out anytime between Jan and Feb, just like EA decisions trickled out over time.

They claim you will hear back in mid February if you are deferred.

I just was happier when I felt okay this is on the D list or the other D list… and I know what it is - I do… I am not a fool… but he has me now still checking… like why did I let him do that …

Well… I am not a fool but apparently he thinks since I didnt get in, at least now, I can’t realize he doesn’t make sense… :sweat_smile: :rofl:

EA decisions have not trickled out over time. You will hear back the same day as all the RD applicants if defered.

Can someone please send a picture of their SRAR message?

Yeah - I had asked that as my initial question believe it or not- if anyone is defered - that rolling or a release date… this went into all the above…

Kinds say - I am disappointed with teh EA process only in that i was SO excited to get it all done and work on everything so early so by Xmas I could relax a bit with at least one of my tops maybe… Feb, March… not too far off - but when you think it will be Oct-Dec… sure seems it!

Just an FYI that last year all decisions were released at 7pm but we had to refresh the acceptance letter to find the scholarship info. It took a few minutes to populate. Hopefully they’ve fixed that but just in case.

I am also super disappointed. It’s super upsetting he tried to deny the fact you literally saw portal updates from other applicants. Again, also hate the false hope. I even have a little now!

Thank you - that’s all I wanted to know - do we all get a message at the same time or like Penn where some people hear each. day - either way is awesome - just wasn’t sure if it was UGA or Penn Style…

And know what - I have not even read one post in this forum or any other I visited that I didnt feel like… Awwww… I hope they/their S24 or D24 get in!! I am happy with each positive update

OMG I am so sorry - I didn’t even realize that I was going to do the same to someone else… urgh it’s like a germ. I am so so sorry!

I just noticed their post says ā€œstarting at 7pmā€. I would take that to mean notifications will be coming out in waves starting at 7pm, likely to minimize crashing the portal? Love to hear others thoughts.

when it updates and we have a familiar SRAR update - let’s both call non stop for this guys and tell him we already denied our acceptances to every other school cuz he seemed so convincing…
