Applied Math at UT? How hard is OOS admission?

<p>Igielsks:
Hi, my son also loves math. He was accepted into Computer Science (2nd choice) instead of Math (1st choice) and the advisors all say that double majoring is a snap and he could switch from CS to any Math major if he wanted. The CS program at UT is very math focused, heavy emphasis on logic and problem solving. You might want to explore CS. UT CS is in the top 10 (7 or 8, I think). And, their job placement, even for internships is crazy good. Just another option …</p>

<p>And whatever you do, apply for honors for that program. I think that says that you are willing to do more than the minimum. Might be an edge to getting into UT.</p>
