Guys my portal says that my application is under review. This has been the message for about 10 days.
As @ShieldOfGod said, Priority is only for US Applicants. It’s written on their website. But it looks like if international students submit early, they will get a notification earlier than EA.
Yes - oos 3.94 uw, 31 act but great ec and essays
@asking4help2 I have no idea why you are making inferences from the clause “you application is under review”. Again, it doesn’t matter which round you applied to. All students get that message. It doesn’t mean that the AOs have considered you as priority or that they are currently “reviewing” it. Don’t take it literally. Its a general message that they’ve received you application and it will be reviewed sooner or latter. Don’t sweat about it now. Wait till the end of march. You’ll receive your decision for sure.
PS: UT doesn’t have EA. Some exceptional international students are given a decision very early. I know a guy from India.
So I am an international applicant from India, I can get the decision anytime?? I applied on 11/28/2017 and submitted all document before deadline. Also
I studied in an Indian curriculum school and my grades are pretty good if not the best, grade 9 -9.8/10 CGPA, grade 10 - 10/10 CGPA and grade 11- 89.9 % (its freaking tough) and grade 12 predicted score given by school - 96.4%(IDK how). SAT 1440 750-M, 690-R; and ACT -32 with a superscore of 33(if it helps) Toefl -110. I have had around 350 hours of volunteer service and I guess my essay is alright, not the best but pretty good. I have done 1 internship in Robotics and CS(my intended major so I hope it helps) and a summer Program at Boston in Robotics and involved in a lot of cricket and basketball 9 through 12. Also I have Subject tests : 800 on math 2, Chem and Phy.
I live in Bahrain so sports opportunities are minute, although I was in the reserves team for Bahrain National cricket team and went to Malaysia for the ACC U-16 cricket cup and also inter-school cricket events and am active in basketball in my school although we have no proper tournaments or organization.
I wish to pursue Robotics and have made that clear in my essay and tried to show my love for it and why I am interested in it. I have strong Recs and I love going to MUNs, I have been to 13 MUNs including one inside UNHQ in New York where I won a verbal mention and have won over 5 wards. My activity essay is based on MUN conferences. I dont really aim for Scholarship, tution should be fine.
I took the ACER examination for Science and Maths(not soooo prestigious) and got 100 percentile internationally and high distinction in maths. I also was a part of a cricket tour to India under CFI( cricket federation of India).
I am part of a global community at Young Scientist’s Journal (www.ysjounal.com) and am an editor and have edited over 15 articles based on Science. I am also part of a community called Young Coders who are working on making a website.
Where do I stand?
@ShieldOfGod Emailed them. They said it will be available in Mid February.
@charizard1234 You should know that you are outstanding. You’d definitely get into a top University. Every University has different things they want from an applicant.
@asking4help2 Sweet. All the best for your decision!
Has anyone gotten a merit-scholarship from cockrell yet?
Called up the school yesterday and they clearly mentioned that internationals(Non US citizens) were not considered under Priority and need to wait for another 2 weeks.
Told ya @UmaSridhar @asking4help2
@c5texas schools just like employers want a blend of talent. The holistic review helps identify that.
@charizard1234 What program are you trying to get in?
Do PACE students receive the admission letter and the Gone to Texas Poster or is it only if they accept that offer?
@CertifiedCC CS or EE what are your opinions?
Hey has anyone heard back from Health Science Scholars?
@vp4897 nope I am waiting as well… CNS Bio Major, all documents submitted for both applications on 9/19… waiting on both decisions.
@vp4897 @ChayDaw26 same here… everything submitted for both applications by 8/7 and still waiting for both decisions. I heard we may hear next friday so fingers crossed
I got accepted into UTCS and Turing Scholars on 2/1 (I’m OOS btw). It was completely unexpected as I sent in all of my transcripts, scores, and letters before Nov 1, but submitted my application for the regular action deadline.
@vp4897
One of my friends got into Health Science Scholars yesterday. I just saw that he put it on his instagram story 21 hours ago.
Does anyone know if anyone has gotten into Polymathic?
is there anyone can tell what is the difference between CAP and school of undergraduate studies?
