<p>Recommendation/Essays: haven't started, but if I do get a recommendation from the professor I'm thinking of, it'll be "good" at the least (or so I'm hoping)</p>
<p>I've seen enough people on here get into COLA with a 3.4, so here's hoping.</p>
<p>I think you have a pretty good chance because of your major. Chance me.</p>
<p>I go to Dallas Baptist University and I have 3.538 but the gpa system is different here I should have a 3.6. I have completed 25 hours and will have 41 by the end of this semester. My volunteer work is great and my essays were great. I’m majoring in business at DBU but changing mine for UT. I applied for communications advertising as my first and undeclared as my second. I really hope I get in.</p>
<p>My application is finally finished. I am waiting on two letters of recommendation. One was written by my Spanish professor, and the second letter was written by my Sales Supervisor at my seasonal job. </p>
<p>Well here is my my info: </p>

Not much extracurricular, presidential/dean list, 2 rec letters, </p>
<p>I’m really not counting on UT since I’m not a texas resident, and heard that it’s near impossible to waive the out of state tuition in UT. I basically applied for fun</p>
<p>It’s better programs for what I’m interested in at UT, and most importantly the tuition at SMU is incredibly high. I can transfer and my parents will cover the bill or I’ll have to start taking out student loans here to make up the difference.</p>
<p>I have a 3.538 hopefully a 3.8 after this semester. I will have 41 hours after this semester. I applied 1st voice communications advertising and second undeclared. Is it easy to get in undeclared? I have great essays volunteer work and rec letters. What are my chances if transferring in?</p>
<p>UTD current freshman
Gpa: 3.75 first semester, probably 3.85 after spring
First choice: Mccombs
Second Choice: cola/ econ
Transferable hours: 34; 49 at the end of spring semester
Extracurricular: bunch of volunteering, vp of club in high school, multiple competition awards in high school, chair of business organization at Utd
Recs/essays: pretty good rec, decent essays (not done yet)</p>
<p>Is it true that if you have more than 30 credit hours excluding your spring semester than they will make a decision without even looking at your second sem. Spring grades? Hopefully thats not the case because I’m fairly confident I can get a 4.0 this semester. Thanks</p>
<p>Question - I’ll have 36 transferable credit by the end of Spring 2013. The UT application status check thing says I’ll have to send transcripts of Spring 2013 by June 1. I’ll have my final grades mid-May so it’s no issue, but will this delay the decision made on my admission?</p>
