2016/2017 UT Austin Transfer Thread

I could almost say that COLA and McCombs will take another week! This is too much.

@krisstory99 I called admissions today and was told that they are on schedule to have all decisions out by June 15th, but no promises. I mean they have to be churning out decisions like crazy but nobody on the thread today received any news, likely just coincidental. I imagine they will finish of the rest of COLA and Moody tomorrow, and then McComb’s / NS / Cockrell on Thursday.

Common UT, just release the decisions already!!!

Honestly I think UT is just waiting to release all at once for COLA Mccombs and Engineering. Whether its tomorrow or June 15, this thread is going to have “I got in” on one day. personally i see June 15 by like 3:00 PM most decisions will be out.

Can someone chance me please!

I attend Texas State University
Major: COLA Health & Society
Second Choice: COLA Sociology
GPA: 3.57
55 hours complete
2 great essays
2 LORs

Looking to transfer to UT in the Spring semester.

aye yo, UT!! you want my money or nah!! make a decision!!! lawd

@trithong I’m not certain what the average GPA for Health & Society is, but i’m sure a 3.57 is about average. You have above average hours and rec letters for COLA though, so I would say your chances are above average.

Any decisions so far? I guess that’s a redundant question since you would post if you recieved one, but I am at work and can’t stand this silence.

Also @yungchildish You will get accepted to your first choice. I can almost guarentee it. You shouldn’t worry.

@UTMccombs2017 still in review ughhhhh longest wait of my life

@hookemags I’m really surprised you haven’t been accepted yet. I would assume you would be one of the first accepted for your major. Like half of us on the thread still haven’t gotten decisions yet…

@UTMccombs2017 it’s because my transcript had a screw up so I was auto rejected and they had to reopen it back it which was super annoying

@hookemags Oh man, I forgot about that. Well at least you are almost guarenteed to be accepted.

@UTMccombs2017 I really hope I get accepted

So I just called admissions, and I was informed that they are still on track to complete all applications before the end of 06/15/2017. However, I was also informed that potentially half the external applicant pool hasn’t recieved a decision yet, so I don’t really know how that is possible. We will see though.

Has anyone heard back today?

I’m livid right now. I just called admissions and asked if they were planning on releasing all their decisions tomorrow because its supposed to be the deadline, and she said that it isn’t a deadline, but a guideline that they use. I kinda knew that, but what I didn’t know is what she told me next.

THEY RELEASE DECISIONS WELL INTO THE MONTH OF JULY… WTF? She literally said in reply to me saying, “So what’s your worst case scenario date if I don’t get a decision tomorrow?” She said, "We don’t have a deadline. June 15th is a date that we work with and use as a ballpark figure, but we release decisions well into the month of July.

Looks like many of us may be waiting much longer.

How are they going to release all of the decisions in one/two days?? Either way I hope they do

@krisstory99 I just called admissions as well, and I was told pretty confidently that at least the majority of the decisions would be released tomorrow. I wouldn’t worry too much yourself, since you will probably be one of the first people admitted to your major. To be honest I would much rather them take their time and get the right people in than simply doing a GPA run down from top to bottom.

@krisstory99 I spoke with a lady from admissions about a couple of weeks ago and I was told the exact same thing. I really hope she’s just inexperienced or something bc waiting til July is ridiculous.
