<p>I am an in state non auto admit applicant. I was wait listed with ACT 32 and 4.0 GPA. My class rank is around top 17% but I go to a very competitive school where around 20-25% of the kids usually get accepted. I gave great EC's, great Rec letters and decent essays. Does anyone have any insight as to why I may not have been accepted? I applied Exercise science but I would take undergrad studies. Do I have a case for an appeal? Would changing my major help? Thanks for any help.</p>
<p>They told you you were waitlisted? It was announced on your MyStatus?</p>
<p>Yup at about 7 last night</p>
<p>How many AP and Honor level courses did you take? Are you graduating on DAP?</p>
<p>10 AP classes and every other class honors so about 15 I’m guessing</p>
<p>And yes dap</p>
<p>Are you saying that you had straight As (4.0 GPA) with 10 AP courses & 5 Honors courses? Coz I would be pretty upset too, if that were the case. </p>
<p>Or </p>
<p>Are you saying that you have a straight B average (4.0 on a 5.0 scale) with 10 AP and 5 Honors courses? In which case, the waitlisting would be understandable. My son has also not been accepted. He had a similar GPA (slightly above 4.0). He has more than 10 APs and more than 10 Honors courses. In Jr year took 5 APs (4,5,5,5,5). </p>
<p>Did you send UT a resume with your AP scores and mention them in your essays or as the reason for being an AP scholar etc.?</p>
<p>As far as the appeal is concerned I believe you have to wait until you are rejected.</p>
<p>Waitlisted,
How were you notified and what do tou see on yout UT direct?
Can you pay for summer orientation?
Hang in there.</p>
<p>How do you know if you have been wait listed?</p>
<p>In post 3, Waiting160 says yes, when asked if was on My Status.</p>
<p>I also JUST received news that I was waitlisted according to myStatus, applied for Electrical Engineering and Civil Engineering, very similar numbers to the OP. (ACT32, top 16%, 4.0wGPA)</p>
<p>I was accepted to A&M for civil engineering, so I need to make a decision by May 1… is there any chance for me being admitted to UT Engineering? Or is the wait list just a chance for undergraduate admissions? What are these chances? (Is it worth taking the risk, because i would have to waive my A&M admission, seeing as I wouldnt know I would be admitted to UT until May 15)</p>
<p>I got CAPPED for Bio. Is there anyway to appeal that?</p>
