best time to apply

<p>I know i need to apply by Dec. 1 to be able to get some scholorships....but when would be the best time to apply if I still have to take the SATs in october?</p>

<p>I don't see why you wouldn't be able to meet that deadline or even apply November. Just start writing your essays now, and ask for teacher reccomendations early (next month would be wise).</p>

<p>as far as i know, only the scholarship application is due december 1st. i applied for admission in January, and still got some scholarships from UT.</p>

<p>What were your stats Macks?</p>

<p>ha, sorry i dont check this forum too much. </p>

<p>SAT: 1440
Class Rank: Top 5%
GPA (unweighted): 3.98 or so
AP, all that good stuff.</p>

<p>I only got $1000 from the university itself -- it's really hard to get merit based aid from UT.</p>

<p>its rolling admissions right? whats the deal with that?</p>

<p>Well I think they have to go with rolling admissions because of so many people who are in top10% get in automatically, pending they finish their application. Kind of like first come first serve.</p>

<p>Mack, you didn't need to finish your application before you started on scholarship forms?</p>

<p>does rolling admission apply to out-of-state applicants as well? when should i get the app in by? november?</p>

<p>get it in ASAP - the sooner the higher chance you have</p>

<p>are you allowed to submit the application without the essays and send the essays later?</p>

<p>yeeeeeaaaah</p>
