UT Austin class of c/o 2022 admissions

34,000 HOLY COW!!! Best of luck to everyone tomorrow and Thursday, only a few more days of dealing with the corrupt admissions process that is UT admissions!

Did anyone else just receive an office of financial aid email?

I also did, @minimango

Did you guys apply for financial aid?

@minimango what did the email say?

What did the email say

@18class “The Office of Financial Aid (OFA) has electronically
received your 2018-2019 FAFSA from the U.S. Department
of Education. Your application is valid and applies for Summer
2018 - Spring 2019 financial aid funding. OFA will notify you in a
separate email if additional documentation is required. Please make
sure your permanent, local and email addresses are current and
accurate at https://utdirect.utexas.edu/apps/utd/all_my_addresses/.

Admitted and current students can monitor the status of their UT Austin
aid application through the Check Aid Status Here (CASH) site at
http://finaid.utexas.edu/.

Sincerely,
The Office of Financial Aid
The University of Texas at Austin”

@kkpita1 have u been admitted already?

Can anyone else corroborate this idea that there will be a wave tomorrow and Thursday? I feel like since UT promised a decision by Feb 1 it would be strange to wait all the way until Feb 1 to release them ALL. But I may just be trying to attain false hope that there will be admissions tomorrow.

:slight_smile:

No I have not been admitted - and I gotta say I think my chances are slim given that I’m out of state.

And yes, I applied for financial aid…

:smiley:

i got the same email a couple months ago

@minimango I have a 34 ACT but my GPA is rather low, 3.7UW and 4W. Good/unique ECs but I doubt that compensates

I just checked and I got this email on October 26th ( I applied on October 12th)

I think you have a good shot @kkpita1

Question: how much does having a father who attended texas and a sister as a current student play into the admissions process?

@MEB2018ut it def helps

I’m starting to get really worried. My CASH system also says error and I did not receive that email, but I did receive it a few months ago.
