@Vishnu_Patel i can’t chance you, but I’ll say UT/McCombs would be crazy not to admit you!
Best of luck!

Really? I thought I was behind everyone else :sweat_smile:

Unless I am missing something, are you are not an “auto admit” which has a 100% chance of acceptance?

Texas law offers eligible applicants automatic admission to public colleges and universities. Automatic admission to UT Austin is available to top 6% freshman applicants from Texas high schools for summer/fall 2023 and spring 2024. Open each tab for additional information.

Yes top 6% have auto admit, but admission to the school/major of their choice is not guaranteed. All the 6%ers that want McCombs will not get McCombs.

WIth that said, OP is competitive. Good luck!
