University of Tennessee Early Action for Fall 2024 Admission

When did the counselor change? Over night?

My counselor is Smokey Dog, too.

My kid updated SRAR and his HS counselor sent the mid year report, but there is a third upload to his application portal that just says ā€œMiscellaneousā€ 1/19/24. Any one else have that too? My son said he didn’t request any other LORs or anything else to be submitted and has no idea what it could be.

same here.

No, but I have not updated grades yet since they are unavailable.

Smokey Dog for me as well. I had the admitted major filled in yesterday, gone now along with everything else besides the Slate ID.

No Smokey Dog here, but I did have the Admitted major filled in the other day…this HAS to be a good sign since Smokey the school mascot …the dog is a blue tick Coon hound that leads the Vols team on to the field…

No updated SRAR…

Admitted Major was showing…

Smokey Dog for counselor…

Do all of these align with everyone else?

So if no Smokey Dog, then rejected?

All these button gates and signs have us going crazy lol

S24 has the same counselor as before. Had admitted major yesterday but now that’s gone.

There is a counselor lookup here in case anyone is interested:

She was accepted, and her portal shows Smokey Dog.

Maybe Smokey Dog is for deferred students?

Our situation:

Deferred earlier
Have not updated SRAR yet
Smokey Dog
Had admitted major blank this week

Deferred earlier
NOT YET updated SRAR
NO Smokey Dog this morning
DID have admitted major this week

Who do have for counselor? Blank or regular name?

Deferred in Dec
Updated SRAR in Dec before the mess
Same counselor as always
DID have admitted major filled in yesterday morning

regular name

do you think having smokey dog means you were admitted or means they made a decision on your application–either admit or rejection?

Smokey Dog is also listed in the portal now instead of Amanda Wolk who was the previous counselor whom we communicated with since applying. There have also been two randomn uploads in the portal that were not initiated or authorized by us. We were also part of the SRAR issue previously. This is all very concerning. We have emailed admissions.
