No Summer Admission!

<p>Here is the latest that was shared at my son's high school:</p>

<p>The middle of last week the President of UT, William Powers Jr.,
testified before the Texas Senate Higher Education
Committee UT</a> president warns of consequences to automatic-admission law
about the significant rise in the top 10% applicants this year and
the short term and long term admission scenarios given the state law
and the application numbers. This weekend UT made the decision that
they would not be able to offer summer admission. Here is an excerpt
from an email received from UT last evening explaining the decision
to not offer summer admission, "Due to the number of top 10%
admits we have in the upcoming fall, plus admits to special majors
(i.e. Fine Arts), UT Austin will not have any remaining spaces to
admit a Summer Freshman Class for 2009. Essentially, we are facing a
situation where all of our available summer freshman class spaces
have already been allocated to the fall semester and we have run out
of space for additional students."</p>
