<p>I was CAPed and I was just wondering: Does everyone that is rejected from Austin offered CAP? If not, is it a large portion of students that are offered CAP?</p>
<p>i was CAPed as well. i know not all are offered CAP, but i'm not quite sure what the percentage is. i've heard, just around, that the CAP students are the non-top-ten percenters that UT wants but isn't allowed to accept by law. are you doing CAP for sure? what campus? i'm not sure yet.</p>
<p>I think I will end up doing CAP at UTSA. It doesn't seem too bad</p>
<p>All Texas students who are rejected are given a CAP offer.</p>
<p>Each and every one.</p>
<p>@theloneranger - Why are you so sure of this? Is this printed policy somewhere? I was told of some Texas students who were out right rejected - not offered CAP. I don't know any details, though.</p>
<p>That's not true. It's stated in their document "How UT Evaluates non-top ten students" that all students are either admitted to fall, admitted to summer, or given a CAP offer.</p>
<p>Don't get me wrong, CAP is an amazing program, but it is a rejection from the university. UT is just incredibly kind that they give everyone a second chance (knowing most offered won't take it up, and many who do either won't get a 3.2 or will choose not to come).</p>
<p>i just committed to cap at utsa next year and i heard the laurel village is really nice - does anyone know if it's too late to get a dorm there?</p>
<p>it shouldnt be too late....they have a CAP session this weekend with tours of the campus and info on the CAP...you should go</p>
<p>i'm pretty sure there's such thing as rejection. there's a thread on here that a rejected student posted awhile back.. <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-texas-austin/479436-does-means-rejection.html%5B/url%5D">http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-texas-austin/479436-does-means-rejection.html</a></p>
<p>anyway, if i do UTSA, i still haven't decided yet, i'd like to stay at laurel village as well. i heard that is the best place to stay. overall, stay away from the only "true dorm" building. it sucks. i read an article last year that said laurel filled up in april.. so i'm hoping it's not full by the time i decide.</p>
<p>Taken from:
IMPLEMENTATION AND RESULTS OF THE TEXAS AUTOMATIC ADMISSIONS LAW (HB 588) at THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT AUSTIN (dated October 27, 2007)</p>
<p>Texas resident applicants are either admitted, cascaded to their second choice of major, offered Summer Freshman Admission, or offered the Coordinated Admission Program (CAP) at a UT System component school. Thus, Texas residents submitting a completed entering freshman application by published deadlines are not denied admission to UT Austin. </p>
<p>Non-residents are either admitted or denied.</p>

<p>Yes, that poster is from China.</p>
