2016/2017 UT Austin Transfer Thread

@ssman512 me too! do you know roughly when we get the result?

@economicmajor, I called the admissions office and the woman told me they would start reviewing applications on Monday (1st day they’re back) and would have decisions made in the following days; I don’t feel like I’ll get in though.

What’re your stats?

I really feel as if there aren’t alot of applicatints this year.

Currently in review! Anyone else?

@ssman512 lol haven’t even started my essay yet

Welp, I was denied. I have new information so I am going to appeal.

Where do you find the stats?

@ssman512 what is your major? Is your GPA higher than the average admitted GPA I posted on last page?

@scientist89 with my HS dual credit, a 3.08. without it, it is a 3.4

I was denied on the 19th of December and submitted an appeal a week later, the day after Christmas. I’m assuming I’ll have a decision soon? Maybe by tomorrow? New student orientation is on the 9th so…

What’s a good length for our essays? (word count).

@adr1697 Admission essays should be around 600-650 words. There might be an exact number or max-line requirement on ApplyTexas.

@irltots Did they answer you ? I have orientation next Monday.

@scientist89 I’ve been checking MyStatus every day and every hour since I submitted the appeal on the 26th. I was told yesterday that faculty just returned on Monday and that it’d be about 7-10 days for review. My hunch is that I’ll be notified on Monday… obviously a very low chance of acceptance though.

Appeal is still in review! I know chances are slim, but I just want to find out already.

I was just admitted today to Neuroscience with a 3.91 GPA. The relevant classes I completed were Bio 1, Bio 2, and Gen Chem 1. Good luck to everyone who is still waiting to hear back!

@longhorn98 congratulations! That’s a great GPA for those courses, you definitely earned that spot!

@irltots Thank you so much! I hope you hear back soon!

I called today and was told that I could hear back as late as the first week of school. Looks like I’m making plans to do another semester at CC. Hopefully i’ll be on the 40 acres by summer term!

I just completed my long orientation day. We had to move to various buildings across the 424 Arces for long and borring meetings/presentations

@irltots We probably won’t find out until as late as Monday. Kinda a rough spot to put us in, but hey, we knew what we were getting into.
