<p>Does TAMU release the review admits with the academic ones or it waits for the academic spots to fill up. I am a review admit and all my materials were processed by 29th Oct. When should I expect to hear back ?</p>
<p>TAMU probably waits for the academic spots to fill up. Then, they move on to Review students. We will find out by the end of March if we get in or not. </p>
<p>"Students who do not qualify for automatic admission receive a holistic review of all of their admissions credentials. This process takes into consideration all academic and personal achievements. Academic achievements include students’ class rank and SAT and/or ACT scores (with the writing component). Personal achievements include students’ involvement in extracurricular activities, community service, employment and summer activities as well as any talents, awards and honors. Texas A&M utilizes this information which is found on the application and the essays as part of the holistic review process. Applicants who are high achieving in both areas are most competitive for an admission offer to Texas A&M.</p>
<p>As an applicant who is going through the holistic review process, what is the likelihood that I will get admitted to Texas A&M?
Thirty six percent of review applicants received some form of admission to Texas A&M. There are several different admission options including…"</p>
<p>AROUND 1 IN 3 CHANCE that we will get in. In addition, not all of the 36 percent people that get in will go to A and M directly. I am really nervous because my SAT scores are at the automatic acceptance but I think my grades are somewhere in the second quarter… </p>

<p>Do not worry too much. I had a friend who applied to UT Austin and his application came out accepted like a few months later. However, he wanted to apply as engineering and got accepted as a natural science (physics) major. I think he changed back to engineering after 1-2 years in the university. He could still be doing physics. Not sure.</p>
<p>I am a review admit who has been accepted. I was accepted into the college of Education as a review admit on November 20th. </p>
<p>3.56 GPA 2nd quartile rank by A&M admissions
ACT score: 31 (34 English, 28 Math, 33 English, 27 Science)
Good extracurriculars with a lot of leadership
Good essays
Applied September 1st, they received all my info October 5th, and accepted November 20th </p>
<p>I thought there was no way I was going to hear back from them this early, but I did. I talked to my college counselor at school and told him of my acceptance so early and he replied “that it’s really a crapshoot when you hear back if your a review admit”. However it seems like the early you apply the earlier you will hear back. The myth that they admit all the auto’s first then look at the review is false, as proof by my acceptance. It’s just probably more likely a review admit would hear later. I just thought I would share this here to give you guys some hope, I can it’s an incredibly anxious waiting process, but trust me when you get that letter and spread in the mail it’s so worth it. Hang in there Aggies it’s going to work out.
Good luck and gig Em</p>
<p>Those of you guys who applied in the October-November range I would say it would more probable to here back from them in the February-March range, so don’t sweat it out to much right now. Leave your worrying for later.</p>
<p>Jmlic, I believe you are an automatic. This is from the website:</p>
<p>Academic Admits</p>
<p>Applicants qualify for automatic academic admission (but not necessarily to the major of choice), if they successfully complete the minimum required coursework and:</p>
<p>rank in the top quarter of their graduating class;
achieve a combined SAT Math and SAT Critical Reading score of at least 1300 with a test score of at least 600 in each of these components; or achieve a composite ACT score of at least 30 with a test score of at least 27 in ACT Math and ACT English (students must take the writing component of the SAT and/or ACT in order for the test score to be considered);
meet the State of Texas Uniform Admission Policy; and
ensure all required credentials are received by the freshman closing date.</p>
<p>This is from 2012, but maybe it is still accurate:</p>

<p>“Howdy Marie, Deisy, Matthew, Sandra, Peter, Maggie, Jen, and Megan!
Were so glad to hear that you all are interested in Texas A&M! To answer the initial question about admissions decisions: these decisions are made throughout the application season on a rolling basis. To clear up any confusion, Texas A&M does not wait for all automatic decisions before they make holistic review decisions. All types of decisions are made throughout the process.”</p>
