Hi @HappyNJOOS …we are from NJ as well…my daughter recently got accepted…have you visited the school yet?

Yes we did visit last spring. One of my personal favorites, but more importantly, one of my son’s favorites. Just had a nice positive friendly vibe. Unfortunately many of the NJ colleges we visited had none of that going on.

My DD applied to TN and received an email from her Admissions Rep that a decision was made on Friday, October 25th. He also said to expect the decision online or email. We should also expect something in the mail. Did anyone else get an email like this? She has still not received anything.

She should be able to see the decision when she logs into her Vol account.

Just received the email today!

Did you receive an email or just posted in the portal? My daughter did not get an email. UT did update the portal with acceptance (10/31), but my daughter does not know yet because she has not logged in. She likes to find out her acceptances herself - so I am just waiting for her to see it :slight_smile:

Congratulations. When did she apply? Can you share stats

@gobux DD received an e-mail that said an update was posted to her VIP portal! When she logged in there was a link to the acceptance letter; within a week she received the UTK admissions box in the mail.

Can someone tell me about the housing contract? What’s the best time frame to get it submitted? I know at other institutions once you pay your acceptance deposit then you are in the queue for housing, but it looks like at UTK maybe the submitted housing contract gets you in the queue? Is it binding? Thanks all!

The $250 enrollment deposit gets you in line for dorm selection. The housing contract can be broken, but the $250 is not refundable unfortunately if you decide to change your mind and not attend UTK.
