Class of 2023 - CSB Honors group

Submitted the application mid October. Received the interview email on Nov. 21. Interviewed on Nov. 26.

What is your sonā€™s first choice?

Petrikore, You meant accepted to CSB? Congrat! What is your first choice?

Looks like they released CSB results for students who selected Business/BHP as their primary area. Anyone with CS/Turing got into CSB yet?

Iā€™m OOS and applied to CSB with Business first choice in late October. No interviews, no results yet ā€“ does this mean Iā€™m no longer being considered for CSB/BHP?

Also, the Texas CSB website says: ā€œApplicants who list ā€œUnspecified Businessā€ as their first choice major will be considered for admission to BHP.ā€ (http://csb.utexas.edu/admissions-faq)

I never formally applied to BHP- only CSB. I assumed that applying for CSB would be an auto-application to BHP. Right? Or did I also need to fill out the BHP app?

If you had indicated the business major as your first choice, it shouldā€™ve automatically given you the BHP application and the CSB application.

I donā€™t think thereā€™s a separate interview for CSB. The interviews are just for BHPā€™s purposes.

Under application status under the honors section it should tell you if CSB Honors is under review separate from BHP Honors is under review. I know for my daughter they are separately under review, so if you didnā€™t apply to BHP and only CSB then it sounds like only CSB would be listed and you can check to confirm that.

got my BHP interview!! whew

Has anyone whoā€™s been interviewed for BHP been rejected from McCombs / UTA? or does the interview pretty much mean youā€™re in?

@HoustonTxDad : Applied to CSB with Computer Science as first Choice. Accepted to Computer Science but still under review for CSB. Did you get accepted or had an interview for CSB?

@ucf2019 we are in the same boat. Accepted to CS but didnā€™t hear back on Turing or CSB.

@HoustonTxDad Turing does not require interview but not sure about CSB with CS as first choiceā€¦
It is also quite possible that they preferred Business first Choice for CSB and put the CS folks on hold.

@ucf2019 @HustonTxDad I applied to CSB with CS as my first choice, so I didnā€™t directly apply to BHP at all. I got invited for a BHP interview 2 weeks ago, which I think is just for CSB. I got admitted to CS (no word on CSB or turing) last Friday. Iā€™m now just waiting to hear CSB and turing.

@Alec2435 Thank you for the update. I think you are first one we heard of getting BHP interview when applied to Turing and CSB combination. I really hope CSB admission is not affected based on Business Vs CS as the primary majorā€¦ but it looks like it may be as many Business first major kids already got into CSB.

@HoustonTxDad @Alec2435 I heard from one of my contacts that is friend has been accepted to both Turing & CSB.
He had applied to CSB with CS as his first choice. @Alec2435 still has a good chance for acceptance to CSB as the interview was conducted recently.

I applied for CSB honors (OOS). I got into McCombs on Dec. 8. I had the BHP phone interview a couple weeks later. I would imagine the decisions come out within the next couple weeks.

@ucf2019 Is there a way you can get additional details like metrics etcā€¦ on this student who was accepted to Turing and CSB. Itā€™s quite interesting as this is the only student that was accepted in this combination.

@HoustonTxDad The student is a USACO Platinum contestant along with a bunch of CS projects and Business experience in CS. Well deserved to be accepted by both programs.
