That rank though ehhh you need to try to get into the top 10% if possible. Ut uses rank heavily like crazy
If your scores can be 30+ you most likely will get in quickly. If not that 27 is pushing it. 28,29 act great chance 30+ even better.
But overall there’s a chance of 50/50 for rejection or acceptance
And what major would you apply for. (Major can make or break you for getting into ut)
If you applied for education or liberal arts then yes
Business, natural science, engineering especially nope.
See what I mean by average scores shoot for the one you’re above average for. Then if you decide on ut then internal transfer. A word of advice though ut is stingy with fafsa for oos

<p>liberal arts, psychology is what i want to major in</p>
<p>Then you have a chance in that case but the average act is 28 so you are below just try to raise it as soon as possible application opens on august first so apply first for a better chance </p>
