I guess what I don’t understand is - you’re asking about getting into UT or transferring to UT but then you bring up school in CA.
You need a plan - a four year plan - and in the best case it’s one school that works for you. One can look to transfer but from a social/life, POV that’s not easy. And is it Texas or CA?
In the end, if you’re a psych major, where you go will matter little. Perhaps one school has a specialization that you seek - and that might matter.
But I think you need a more stable plan - it’s a bit all over.
