<p>Hello there, I’m new to this site, so I really hope this topic is on the right board.
Anyway, I kind of had my heart set on going to the University of Texas at AUSTIN but I was offered CAP and qualified for places such as UT Tyler. I didn’t qualify for places closer to Austin (where I live) such as Dallas, San Antonio, or Arlington, but I did qualify for Tyler. I was really upset that I did not automatically get into UT but there’s no point in me stressing about it any longer, maybe I’ll have to spend a year at UT Tyler till I get 30 hours, at least a 3.25 GPA, and then automatically get accepted into UT Austin (those are the requirements).
But the point of this thread–Does anyone know what UT Tyler is like? Has anyone did CAP over there? I hope this doesn’t sound too shallow/ignorant but what are the people like at the school or at Tyler in general? Is there a lot to do in the city of Tyler?
And also, does anyone think it is worth doing CAP for UT ESPECIALLY if I have to do it all the way in Tyler, Texas–or should I just go to another college and maybe transfer to UT on my own…???</p>
<p>Thank you for listening! Please let me know what UT Tyler is like and if it is worth it. I would really appreciate it. </p>
