<p>About Me (if it matters):
White female from LI. Super competitive HS. Family income is about $120K-$130K.</p>

<p>I know UT cares a lot about rank, but my school doesn't rank. I'd say I'm in the top 20% (possibly higher,) but like I previously stated, my high school is extremely competitive.</p>

<p>You are from LI? Where is that?</p>

3

<p>She probably mistyped IL.</p>

4

<p>No I’m from Long Island lol (New York)</p>

<p>well UT takes top 10% of freshmen from Texas high school. Being out of state just makes it more difficult … It’s not fair but it’s true … I think 90% of students accepted are from Texas so you would really have to stand out to get into such a competitive school! good luck! I think you should still try but at the same time have other options.</p>

<p>Hi, smartfox, UT will assign you an estimated rank based on the information your counselor provides. Non-ranking schools: If your high school does not rank class members, include with your transcript a statement from your school about its policy, a copy of your school’s profile, and a GPA or grade distribution.</p>

<p>As was indicated, OOS admissions is very competitive. Be sure you read through the admissions section on the McCombs website as well as on Be A Longhorn. Good luck!</p>
