<p>Haha good to know I’m not the only one who’s been checking on Easter
Does anybody have any stats for the College of Communication’s average GPA for transfers? I applied there first choice and Liberal Arts second choice with a 3.681 GPA and I’m freaking out all of a sudden lol. I’ve been pretty confident up until this point but now my nerves are taking over my ability to think rationally!</p>
<p>So I’ve been checking out the 2010 stats to reassure myself these past few, seemingly endless, months:</p>
<p>[Transfer</a> Times - Spring 2011 | Be a Longhorn](<a href=“http://bealonghorn.utexas.edu/counselors/jcc/transfer-times/spring2011#]Transfer”>http://bealonghorn.utexas.edu/counselors/jcc/transfer-times/spring2011#)</p>
<p>Scroll down to the link that says “Read more about how GPA affects admission” and click on it. It will pull up the average GPAs. Looks like you’re right there, but that’s not a bad thing. Half of the students admitted had a lower GPA than you in 2010. Good luck!</p>
<p>I have a gut feeling we’re goIng to get the first round of decisions on Tuesday. Anybody wanna wager $50?</p>
<p>I’m definitely feeling Wednesday. We’ll see though. I certainly wouldn’t mind if it were Tuesday.</p>
<p>That is a very handy table to those who are wondering what their chances are.
For our convenience, I tried to copy this table up there, but I could not do it. I guess it does not support to include images here.</p>
<p>I’m applying for Communications too! Wow that chart freaks me out seeing how many apply and the little amount that they accept. I feel like Tuesday and Wednesday we’ll start hearing things. I feel like for Communications we won’t see anything till the end of this coming week or possibly beginning of next. From what I’ve seen they take the longest to release decisions.</p>
<p>Thanks for that chart! I had no idea communications was so selective. Anybody else surprised by the 3.45 avg GPA for engineering??</p>
<p>My money is on early week decisions :)</p>
<p>Haha, yes, the Engineering GPA was surprising and reassuring!</p>
<p>Some decisions are out, including CNS</p>
<p>@letsgoletsgo1: Thanks for the chart! Seeing that my GPA is in the same arena is reassuring but seeing that only 180 out of 564 were accepted that year freaks me out. I don’t know how much longer I can wait for these decisions my patience is wearing thin Good luck everyone!!</p>
<p>Still nothing. How’d you know some decisions were posted?</p>
<p>I got my admissions decision on Sunday. (Mathematics, CNS)</p>
<p>Do you mean the Easter Sunday?
Do they release decisions on Sundays?</p>
<p>Yes, they were released on Sunday night as far as I can figure. Sometime after 8pm, for sure. It caught me by surprise, I was expecting something mid-week. </p>
<p>Congrats everyone!</p>
