UT Austin 2011/12 Transfer Guide

<p>@Collegeman2011</p>

<p>Thanks for the advice and encouragement! You are right about them taking “painfully” long to make decisions. I love this thread because there’s people here that share the same pain as me! I thought the application process was stressful, but the waiting period is by far the most stressful. Looks like we only have a little more waiting to do :x!</p>

<p>College/ Major Applying to: liberal studies (soc)</p>

<p>Entering as: Junior</p>

<p>GPA: HS- 3.3/4.0; College- 4.0/4.0 from a JC with 70 units (only accepting 53)</p>

<p>ECs: SIFE officer, tutor, family business, guitar, drums ,etc
Work Experience: shift manager, host, host, busser–for about 2.5 years</p>

<p>What school did you apply to when you were accepted?</p>

<p>Has anyone heard anything yet? My patience is wearing thin…</p>

<p>I’ve heard that they’re going to start reviewing the applications early this month. So …</p>

<p>When I called, they told me we should hear back by mid-April or so. Hopefully we hear back soon!</p>

<p>got accepted to the cola tonight! Woooo</p>

<p>Everyone check your mystatus prontooo!!!</p>

<p>@robertrulez Aghh congrats!! I just checked mine again and still nothing yet. What are your stats??</p>

<p>@breezy</p>

<p>Thanks! 47 credits with a 3.8 gpa from UH! Lots of ecs and volunteer work, also had a letter of rec as well. Im really excited but im also waiting on hearing from some other schools but im most likely going to UT. Cant wait to be a longhorn.</p>

<p>Congrats Robert! Man am I jealous. Hopefully the rest of us get decisions soon!</p>

<p>Has anyone else received double notification about FAFSA processing? I got an email a week or two ago right after submitting the form and then another identical one tonight…</p>

<p>nice! i have a 3.83 gpa at acc
im waiting to hear back from ut as well</p>

<p>1st choice: BME
2nd choice: biology</p>

<p>it still says in review…</p>

<p>out of curiosity…what does it say when you’re not accepted?
or does it just stay in review?</p>

<p>@mnaacd</p>

<p>Yeah I still havent received an acceptance email lol. But I got the email about the fafsa and I thought it was odd that it said “We will begin processing your application for
student financial aid shortly and notify you when you are awarded.”</p>

<p>Then I checked mystatus to find out that I was accepted lol!</p>

<p>@robertrulez</p>

<p>Congrats man! Must be nice to have that weight off your shoulders =))</p>

<p>Well, mine is just notification that they have my FAFSA but it still says they won’t process it if and until I am admitted. I just thought it was odd to get the same email twice.
Also, I don’t think they send you an “acceptance” email - just the status page and a physical letter in the mail. Congratulations for your acceptance!</p>

<p>@Locness
Pretty sure they’ll tell you if you’re not admitted.
Just an observation from reading through this thread and past transfer threads:
it seems that COLA usually releases acceptances first. RTF sounds like the slowest. Engineering and CNS are somewhere in between, but I think engineering likes to release most of theirs at the same time.</p>

<p>@ robertrulez</p>

<p>What were your stats if you don’t mind me asking? And what did your mystatus page say when you got accepted?</p>

<p>Got accepted today into Psychology. 3.9 GPA from TTU. So glad I got in :slight_smile: Good luck to everybody else!</p>

<p>For those that have been accepted:</p>

<p>Was your status posted up at night? Like have you been continuously checking throughout the day and it turns out it started showing up at night? I hope you guys understand my question. I keep checking my account because it seems like you guys noticed your status change later on in the evening or did you just happen to check in the evening? </p>

<p>Goodness, I must sound so odd. UT has made me pretty anxious.</p>

<p>For everyone else, I’m wondering if UT might decline my application because I have too many hours. I have a lot of hours from high school and college but not a lot that apply to my specific major, will that affect whether or not they accept me? Thanks guys and good luck!</p>

<p>For those interested, this is what mystatus looks like for me. Obviously removed private info just fyi.</p>

<p>And I checked mystatus this afternoon around 12 to see what was up, and then I got an email around 6 about the financial aid stuff and wondered why were they emailing me about it so I checked again.</p>
