CAP Program

Hi, I’m in the top quarter of my highschool class and have scored a 1380 on my SAT, I’m fine with doing CAP but how likely is that I will get capped. I’m applying as a nursing major and any information pertaining to that would be great too!

Hi. Just be aware that if you are capped, you will be guaranteed a spot at UT in a liberal arts major, not in nursing or science or any others like that. UT says you can still apply to the other departments but you are not guaranteed a spot.

Here is a link to it: https://admissions.utexas.edu/enroll/cap/prospective-students.

Not sure if it comes through properly but just in case the link doesn’t work, UT says if you’re trying for a competitive major, you may want to go to a university where you pathway is more certain. I believe nursing is very competitive at UT.

Sorry, I’m not sure of who or why people are offered CAP so I can’t help you with your chances. Just wanted to let you know about the guarantee of Liberal Arts.

Good luck in whichever you choose!
