University of Tennessee Early Action for Fall 2024 Admission

29 ACT is about 1330-1360 SAT.

1400 SAT here and was deferred OOS

Without knowing majors as well it’s really hard to decipher…perhaps that’s the missing link? Ive told my junior daughter regardless of SAT score, she shouldn’t expect an answer from UTK until February next year, which will be well after answers from a favored safety. It’s definitely a method to trim out those without a true, deep interest in the school!

Are you supposed to update grades through SRAR or does your college counselor send in?

My guidance counselor sends a mid year report but I’m going to update the SSAR myself as well. That’s all I’m doing though, I’m not having new letters sent because honestly I don’t even think they’ll have time to look at them. I’ve got other great acceptances with merit from others. So while I absolutely loved my tour at UTK I also absolutely loved some other schools as well and will end up exactly where I’m supposed to :smiley:

Great outlook! I’ve been back and forth with my daughter on whether she needs to update SRAR but I know her counselor submitted her mid year grades.

It is my understanding that UTK does not look at the transcripts from the high school, only at the SRAR. Our high school sent Q1 grades and admissions told us they need it in the SRAR. My guess here is that it’s easier for them to compute their own GPA by using data in the SRAR rather than having to scrape the transcripts from different high schools. But please validate what I’ve said before acting!

I was deferred EA and just logged in to my portal and saw this… It wasn’t there a few days ago when I went in to update the SRAR. Does anyone else have this?

Yes, but D admitted major is filled in it’s not blank.
She did not update the SRAR.

At this point I wish they’d just make admissions rolling. They obviously can’t prevent glitches very well

I was deferred…I just checked and mine looks like that except the admitted major says Psychology.

D major is Psychology too…so maybe doing it by majors…

Just checked my sons and it’s there now and admitted major is also filled in. It was definitely not there before.

Congrats, I’m sure that’s a pretty good sign. I’m thinking it is possible it’s by major/random because everyone I’ve asked who was deferred has it. Only difference is some are filled in and some are not.

I’m curious what it means bc D didn’t update SRAR with fall grades which were all good (3) A (2)B
Im hoping she still considers UT but i don’t think she will that’s why she didn’t update.

We have the same. Did not update the SRAR yet (face it, PTSD from UTK SRAR issue) b/c his semester doesn’t end for a few weeks.

Is admitted major filled in?

yes. It has Slate ID: (and a #); UT NetID: blank; Student ID: blank; and Admitted Major: filled in. IDK if I can read into that???

Same thoughts

Ours is the same. I’m thinking if it now says admitted major that means something.

Wondering if maybe everyone’s looks like this now?
