Hi guys,

I have been admitted for Fall 2017. I’m a mechanical engineering transfer from a Dallas community college. Looks like Cockrell has started to admit.

@screenName* First admit it seems, congratulations! Mind posting your credentials?

Hey everyone, I got admitted today for Fall 2017! Here are my stats for those of you that are wondering:

GL to all of you !!! Can’t wait for my acceptance this summer

Congrats everyone! No more checking mystatus a billion times a day for y’all hahaha!

Do you guys mind sharing what it looks like when you get in? Is it on the homepage of mystatus?

ACCEPTED TO RTF!!! I was not expecting to hear back this soon!! I looked at the threads from last year and thought I had made a terrible mistake when I saw that like zero OOS people got into RTF and that they didn’t hear back until mid-June…

OOS, junior transfer
4.0 at a SUNY CC
no LOR’s (I told my professors march 15th, because thats when all the deadlines for the other schools I applied to were)
I wrote the two required essays kind of last minute
I’m honestly in shock, really did not think I would get in, but I’m absolutely thrilled!

@juliar95 I got an email that said something “important information has been posted on your mystatus account in the past 24 hours, please check it blah blah.” It sounded like it was going to be bad news, like that I had failed to submit some crucial document or something, but then I clicked on the “admission” tab and it said “congratulations [my name]!” where it used to say “your application is in review”

@manicpixie Around what time of day did you receive the email?

@collegekid0013 8 pm! (New York time)

Gratz to u all. Getting my acceptance this summer. So excited

@manicpixie Last question, did you submit a portfolio?
Thanks, and congrats!

@collegekid0013 nope! didn’t even know there was an option to!

@collegekid0013 I didn’t know about that either. Did you submit one?

@juliar95 I did, it was really just a bunch of links to Vimeo. When I visited the school and went of a tour of the RTF building they said it was a good idea to submit a portfolio, but most seem like they didn’t?
