Oh, ok. Whatever it is, it’s just based on my observation.
@hdhsbhbdna A couple of weeks ago there was a massive wave of CNS (or engineering cant remembers specifically), but before that, nobody had heard anything. I really do think it’s just at random based upon from what occurred in late April with those admits.
Anyone else having trouble with my status? Its making my change my password in order to login, but wont accept any of my passwords.
Never mind lol
@remytreat I think she has a 3.67. And she make straight As in all the science classes.
@msp474 Hey! I also applied to transfer into that major. I haven’t heard anything yet.
Rejected, 3.9 GPA, over 70 credit hours. Chemical engineering.
OMG
@marionberries Wow denied with a 3.9?
@marionberries I’m sorry, that is disheartening. I feel like the main reason is the number of hours you have?
At this rate, let’s just hope they tell us before the semester starts.
I don’t think it’s the number of hours. They do a holistic review. The GPA is only one factor. Alot of other factors play into the admission decision
It seems that in the past, it has felt like it was based a lot on GPA, and perhaps this year, they were like, we HAVE to do this holistically and they’re looking at things more deeply than before?
I am so sorry @marionberries, I truly am. It’s awful to have your hopes up and unthinkable that you’d be rejected. Is there hope of appeal?
Not certain what exactly could have been the cause for my rejection aside from lady luck frowning down upon me. Fair amount of extracurriculars (heavily involved in volunteering, conducted research in BME, investment in dance, art, and piano), essays were put through the wringer several times, solid recommendations. Applying as transfer was already my appeal - I applied for freshman in the fall, got CAP’d, but have a lot of credit hours that’d allow for transfer app - so I doubt I can appeal again.
I’d recommend contacting them and asking if there’s a specific reason you weren’t successful with transferring. Even recommend setting up an appt. My old boss did that and he was able to reapply and get in once he heard from them. I mean, you can’t fix what you don’t know. And of course, that’s if you’d like to apply again. Did you ever look at your degree audit to see if there’s a mistake for courses xferring? My husband said you may be able to appeal that. He is a graduate from UT.
UT needs to hurry up because i’m about to make serious moves with other schools lol
@TAMU2UTCS I don’t think it’s because of the number of hours too. My friend transferred to UT with 4.0 gpa this spring. She had 110+ hours and UT transferred 92 of them (I thought there is a limit but it can’t explain my friend’s situation). So I think they transfer all the hours that are transferable. But of course some of them are not apply to her major.
Has anyone sent in their highschool transcript just to get it over with, or are most of you waiting for a decision?
I didn’t know UT needed our high school transcript, at least not for transfer students. Might have to clarify that tomorrow
@swimmer181 I technically did submit my high school transcript but it’s because it was already under my documents from the first time I applied to UT in high school. But yes @hdhsbhbdna admitted students will eventually have to send their high school transcripts
