I got CAPed by UT. Here are my options.

College Search & Selection

<p>Alright, so here's the deal. I applied to UT with a 6th semester rank of 8.6 percent. I didn't qualify for automatic admission and was offered enrollment in CAP and ACC co-enrolment.</p>

<p>My seventh semester rank is top 7th percent, which (I think) now qualifies for automatic admission.</p>

<p>I have 5 options:</p>

<ol>
<li>Enroll in CAP and go to UTSA for the first year.</li>
<li>Co-enrollment with Austin Community college and UT, then transfer after 2 years.</li>
<li>Apply to UT in the spring with my new rank, and do nothing for the fall semester.</li>
<li>Apply to UT in the spring, and attend another school for the fall semester.</li>
<li>Forget about UT and go to another school. (Texas tech, Baylor, A&M, or UTSA). </li>
</ol>

<p>What's the best option? Do 7th semester ranks even count? Can I even transfer after one semester?</p>

<p>I would call them. Maybe they would take a second look at your app? Can’t hurt to try.</p>

<p>I just found out I can submit an appeal. Thanks for the advice Unicameral :D</p>

<p>Between #1 and #2, check to see whether UTSA or ACC has the best matching courses for your major.</p>

<p>Of the other options #3 and #4, you may want to see if they are even possible. #5 depends on how much you like UT Austin versus the other schools (which may depend on your major).</p>

<p>Did appeal work?</p>
