I’m starting this thread for review applicants to talk about the admissions process and to post when/if they get accepted. I applied October 2nd and have been in review ever since. I just spoke with an admissions rep and they told me about 80 or so review applicants have been offered full admission thus far. Has anyone on here been accepted/heard anything about when we could possibly get some news?
I just posted to the other thread:
Applied 11/16
UIN 11/18
Review Admit, In-State, Top 15%, GPA 3.81 out of 4.0
SAT 1190/ ACT 27
Application is Complete and In Review
700+ community services hours, Academic All-State (2 sports), NHS, FFA, FCA, (and a few more) 21 transferable college credits with a 3.75 (dual credit courses)
I have been contacted by the Advisor in the major I applied too - making sure I submitted the college transcript before the deadline, seeing if I had any questions, schedule an in-depth tour, etc. When they contacted me, it made me think I had a chance to get in but most likely, wishful thinking!
Since the transcripts are delayed by two weeks (posting to AIS), I assume review decisions will also be delayed for those of us who have’t been accepted yet.
Here are my stats:

DS submitted app to UT a couple days before he submitted his A&M application. He was accepted into UT-Austin on 11/18 and subsequently offered admission to UT’s Liberal Arts Honors program in mid-December. Given the fact that he’s admitted to UT and offered admission to one of UT’s honors program he may simply go there as he is still “in review” at A&M. He’s also been admitted to SMU with $15K year scholarship offer in acceptance letter, Ohio State full tuition Morrill scholarship offer, and Tulane $10K year scholarship offer in acceptance letter. Still waiting to see if he gets admitted to A&M.
I posted these on the other thread about my daughter but maybe this will help someone:

GPA : 3.97 uw / 4.27 w

Accepted 12/3
Daughter had lots of extras, including 6 varsity letters, track and cc awards (state level including state champions multiple times), job, college class, 7 APs, volunteering etc. I believe the class rank is what stood out though. Not doing sports in college so that didn’t give her an edge.
