I recently applied to the University of Texas at Austin, and I unfortunately received news I was not accepted. I decided to call to see what the reasoning was and the man of admissions told me I did not have calculus in order to be considered for Cockrell College. I knew I wasn’t going to get accepted into Cockrell College because I didn’t have calculus II so I thought I changed my college to Liberal Arts however it did not go through the system. Is this a valid reason for an appeal? I’m just overwhelmed and don’t know what to do!
Is it for freshmen admission? You should have done that much earlier (e.g. before May 1).
June seems a bit late, they probably already have the seats filled out for liberal arts in the fall.
The OP is a transfer (per another thread).
If you did change to the liberal arts college then you have a reason to ask the school to reevaluate your application.
If you “thought” you changed to the liberal arts college but didn’t actually do so then you have no grounds to ask the school to reevaluate your application.
Hopefully you have other options.
I’m a transfer student so I had until June 1st to finish my application
@happy1 well I attempted to, but I guess it did not go through, do you really think they would decline me for a technicality ? I also called (early on through the application process) and they told me that I would automatically be considered undeclared if I had a good academic standing. I have a 3.9 transfer gpa so I wasn’t too worried about that. When I got my results, that same day I called and they told me they unfortunately we’re not doing that this year. So I found it strange they would even suggest that to me in the first place. I didn’t want to argue this tho because it seems I’m placing blame on them…
It was your responsibility to be sure the change went through.All you can do is contact admissions and ask again if they would re-review the application. If they aren’t doing that this year it may be because they have filled all the spots.
I ended up getting accepted
Congratulations!
