Personal Achievement Index Question

Colleges and Universities A-Z The University of Texas at Austin

UT’s PAI is composed of many components but I have a question over the “Special Circumstances” part:

 Single parent home
 Language spoken at home
 Family responsibilities
 Socio-economic status of school attended
 Average SAT/ACT of school attended in relation to student’s own SAT/ACT
 Race/Ethnicity (beginning with fall 2005)

In my case, would surgery during junior year be considered a “special circumstance”.
