<p>@FullMetalx-I do! Someone I know got in with a 2000. He went to one of the top 200 high school in the nation, though, if that means anything…I’m business/pre-pharm! I know one person who is business/pre-med. It’s just more hours of class, and eventually you’ll have to study for the MCAT while juggling business classes at the same time.</p>

<p>@sunshine341-Do it RIGHT when you get accepted, if you want to wait. I know people who waited till late March and ended up not getting housing, and their prospective roommates had to scramble to find someone new :(</p>

<p>@Cwillbounds you’re welcome :)</p>

22

<p>Ok thank you very much natalie9494 :)</p>

23

<p>What would you say your favorite things about UT Austin have been so far?</p>

24

<p>@Cwillbounds-EVERYTHING. The school spirit, Austin, the people I’ve met, the relationships I’ve strengthened, the dorm life…I love it all :)</p>

25

<p>That’s amazing :smiley: I’ve heard that from almost all the students I’ve talked to. I absolutely cannot wait.</p>

26

<p>Is it hard to be accepted into the Biology major at UT? I am an auto admit for this university but I am worried about not being able to get into this major…
also I know you aren’t exactly pre-med but do you know if I do graduate from UT with a Bio degree, is this sufficient to get into medical school?? I want to be a Pediatrician in the future and I’m hoping this is the path that will get me there</p>

27

<p>How much of a commitment is it to be in a sorority? They sound like fun to me, but I’m a pretty independent person, and I don’t want my life to revolve around a sorority</p>

28

<p>@nw2727- The college of Natural Sciences is pretty much open to anyone who wants to get in. It isn’t as competitive as Business or Engineering.</p>

<p>Medical schools don’t care about your major. You could major in Liberal Arts for all they care, you just need to take the pre-med classes.</p>

<p>Medical schools look at GPA, MCAT scores, and ECs.</p>

29

<p>When do out of state students usually find out? I applied in October to computer science and still haven’t heard back.</p>

30

<p>What do you know about SRD?</p>

31

<p>What Are My Chances Of Getting A Dorm? I’ve Been Admitted (Auto. Admission) But Am Hesitant To Apply For Housing. I Submitted My Application On The Deadline. If I Apply Now, Will I Have A Chance?</p>

32

<p>Housing is confusing. Everyone on the Facebook group is scrambling and I’m confused why- do we really have to choose our housing now if we want to get a dorm? I still have to hear from many colleges. What will happen if I apply(?) in April?</p>

33

<p>Is it possible for me to get into University of Texas at Austin?</p>

<p>OK so my GPA weighted is around a 3.6. I have had really good grades in the past but messed up the first semester of my junior year. (Right now). I am in three clubs at my school to benefit the under privileged and sick children. I have many hours of community service and I have even spent time in Jamaica working with orphans this summer. I have played piano for seven years and have preformed in many recitals. I won a poem contest in sixth grade and my poem was published. My dad has very close ties with the administration board at UT. I plan to major in English and Human Rights and then after my four years I plan to go to law school. I can get really good letters of recommendation. Im taking the SAT later this month and plan to keep taking it until I get a least a 1800. What are my chances of getting in?</p>

34

<p>@nw2727-CNS is auto admission if you’re auto admit to the university :)</p>

<p>@sunshine341-from what I know, it is! There’s meetings and stuff like that, and always events going on. It’s not for everyone</p>

<p>@rhcpfan16-Last year, OOS and non auto admit found out February 17, AKA the best day of my life :)</p>

<p>mleahkelsea-IT’S SO NICE. and the bathrooms are lovely too! it’s just kind of far from everything on campus.</p>

35

<p>@nekochan77 just pay the $50 so you’re guaranteed! :)</p>

<p>@ashmarie714-Bring your SAT up a bit, write really good essays, and you’ll be just fine :slight_smile: UT is weird with admissions though…</p>

36

<p>I am a non auto admit and am guessing that i will receive a response late February. My question is : how did you deal with the stress of waiting?</p>

37

<p>Natalie - thank you for answering questions.</p>

<p>Any idea on how many people to plan II with engineering?</p>

38

<p>Is the school size overwhelming? Are most of your classes huge? (well I am sure your intro classes are). Like when you are walking around campus, are there just people all over the place?</p>

39

<p>Of course there are people everywhere. Many class sizes are 250plus (usually intro courses). The benefits of a 35,000+ student body.</p>

<p>If I just applied for housing on Feb. 7 what are my chances of getting into Jester East</p>
