Congratulations on Engineering Honors! That’s awesome! Would you share your stats?

my stats were honestly not that good, i’m really surprised i got in in the first place!
-5 APs
-1390 SAT
-106 weighted GPA

  • +100 community service hours
  • a few achievements and honors, but nothing extraordinary
  • many EC’s varying from musical involvement to religious but none of them related to my major (aero)
  • strong rec letters and mid essay and short answers (from my perspective)
  • bilingual student with first language not being english
    perhaps there are a few things that i am missing but that’s what i can think of from the top of my head

Our mail tomorrow from USPS shows a letter from UT’s ā€œOffice of the President.ā€ Any clue what this could be? As you can see I’m impatient and don’t want to wait till tomorrow to find out!

Hello All! Been lurking for awhile so thought I would introduce myself. D24 was accepted to McCombs. It’s one of her top choices so she’s thrilled and frankly, relieved it went the way it did. Now in the long wait for the RD schools. March is going to be a long month! Appreciate all the stories and advice on this board and wishing everyone’s kiddos best of luck with the remainder of the process!

I hope this is something good. Good luck! Please share with us when you find out.

How do you check that at USPS? I’m curious now.

You can sign up for their informed delivery on their website. My mom gets emails daily about what’s in the mail, so she told me this will be in the mail tomorrow.

Thanks! I signed up for this just now and sadly we have no scheduled deliveries. Good luck to you!

Guessing a welcome letter?

I already got my admissions packet, which is why I’m so curious to what it could be.

Yes! My D24 was accepted as a Psych major. I agree this month is going to be long. She’s undecided about what to do with housing. She’s got her app in for housing though. Good luck and hope you have a somewhat relaxed month.

Look into the Scottish Rite Dormitory and Hardin House. Both were recommended by friends who have daughters at UT. Safe, all girls, really nice dorms. Privately run so you apply directly to them, not thru UT housing. They will likely have a waitlist at this point but we’ve heard there will be openings once people start making final decisions/commitments.
