Hey, I was wondering if any of you guys got an email from UT about this. Haven’t gotten into to Dean’s Scholar yet, so I’m pretty sure this isn’t the same as ‘Best of Texas’. Let me know if you have any experience with this program:
“What’s next? The University of Texas at Austin invites you to Meet UT, a by-invitation-only opportunity offering admitted students a chance to hear directly from college and school representatives, staff from the Division of Housing and Food and Division of Diversity and Community Engagement, and admissions counselors.”
UT Austin Turing Scholar + Dean’s Scholar is probably my first choice, so let me know if it’s worth going to (6:30-9:30 on a school night 1hr away)
My s got the email yesterday, Tuesday - the Houston session is next Wed - it seems rather general in nature so we are skipping it. He is heading back to campus instead in early Feb to do one more look-see. He has signed up for a housing session then, as well as a McCombs session. fyi, he is in McCombs & Plan II.
My S got the email as well. It sounds helpful if you are not familiar with campus and the housing options or if you want to “feel the love” from UT for having been accepted already:)
