Hello, my names Danielle, and my papers got to UT Austin late. It’s been my dream to go there and I am desperate to appeal. I didn’t originally miss the deadline, but my papers were sent out late because I had been a really rough spot at the time. Between November up until this Feburary I had been on severe suicide watch due to my seasonal depression and anxiety, and besides this I have many good things reasons why my papers were late. Also, my SAT score was 2200 and my ACT 28. I have several pages of extracurricular and I’m even an international youth ambassador for a major company in the Philippines. At this point, I am just desperate to have them look at my resume. I don’t care if I’m turned down. I just don’t want to have all my years of work in high school wasted. Can someone, anyone help?
Sounds like you had a difficult winter. I don’t know of any way to bend the deadline rule. Why don’t you pick up some classes at Austin Community College and submit a new application by Oct 1, 2015 for the Spring 2016 semester. It can still be your dream…just a few months later.
If any of you all can help me too, please do!! I’m so confused about this CAP thing… http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/university-texas-austin/1743947-capped-waitlisted-ut-austin-class-of-2019-capped.html?new=1
