2016/2017 UT Austin Transfer Thread

Accepted to the school of social work! I had a 3.59 gpa, 78 hrs, lots of volunteer experience, 3 really good essays, 0 LOR.

If I had a dollar for every time I checked MyStatus this week (waiting for COLA) I’d probably be able to pay this whole thread’s tuition lolololol

@yungchildish, hahaha!! :))

do AP scores that count as credit at one college count towards the 30 hour minimum requirement??

@ccollege2020 If they are audited onto your degree plan/transcript then they should.

Hmm, doesn’t look many decisions out today. Maybe just not for anyone on CC.

I JUST GOT INTO RTF!!! I can’t believe it. I’m oos from a California cc. I applied with a 3.93 1LOR 2 great essays 84 units.

Well McCombs and every other school has one week to make decisions. This is, undoubtedly, going to be one of the longest week of our lives for many of us. Good luck everyone, I hope to see you at orientation.

Wow COLA is seriously slacking… I haven’t seen them make barely any decisions lately and they have a week left.

I called admissions today to see why I was rejected from RTF, it wasn’t because of credit issues, just competition. The counselor I talked to said he was glad I appealed because of my high gpa, and I’ll hopefully hear back soon, but not counting on anything.
(3.892 gpa, 1 LOR, 63 credit hours, 2 unique essays, and 80+ hours as a film festival intern)

bro i’m seriously done with mccombs, Ill use my money elsewhere

Im a transfer student from a California cc. I unfortunately wasn’t accepted to Mccombs or Economics. But will be attending UC Berkeley for econ!!! (no big deal)
GPA: 3.8
honors program at my cc, phi theta kappa, a member of 2 clubs, 0 LOR (probably had a huge role), Great essays, a ton of ecs, tutored underprivileged high school students.

Hey yall! For transfers waiting for McCombs responses: I found out June 16 of last year that I got in, and usually McCombs releases internal transfers and then externals (internals a few days before externals)! I know how yall feel about waiting for so long, but just know… it will be coming soon (next week maybe)!
Goodluck!

@ut2019 Thanks for the information man! Do you mind if I ask what your requisites for entry were? Also, for students who found out on the last possible day, do you think the majority of them got accepted?

@UT2019 I’m a girl LOL but you are welcome! Hmm, all i know that a majority of us that had 3.8+ got in! They usually release it all in one day (If i recall correctly, internals found out the Friday before externals… then externals found out June 16) And, what do you mean about requisites, like my GPA?

@ut2019 Whoops, my mistake! And yeah, just your GPA, EC’s, and hours would be fantastic.

@UTMccombs2017 i had a 3.875, not really involved in ECs, and took 32 hours in the CAP program + 6 hours from dual credit!

lol i might as well be denied.

mccombs wait is crazy. ill be patient a few more days.

Maybe its just me but COLAs wait is getting to be ridiculous too! Moody seems to have let out the most decisions so far lol.
