<p>Really? look, this rule goes into effect fall 2011, it caps the automatic admissions at only UT-Austin at 75% the other 25% are admitted using a discretionary basis like all other private universities…i posted a link on the OTHER thread about the 10% plan… but here it is again…
here’s a link to an article on it…</p>

<p>not sure if the link works, but i do know that Google searching “10% plan amendment” does work</p>

<p>In a nutshell the Top 10% stays the same at everywhere except UT. If you want to get auto accepted to UT you will need to be in around the Top 7-8% beginning fall 2011.</p>
