I don’t mind being if I get rejected from McCombs, I just want to get into UT itself.
Does anyone know when the Moody applicants heard back last year? Just trying to get a timetable.
@tostyful did you choose a second major? What college?
@ecollin My second major was COLA economics.
@hookemmom So, does AP credit count toward the 30 hours required for transfer? Or has your student already send the final transcript for spring somehow? Are they letting people with less than 30 hours know early?
@Geekytheatregeek The AP credit counts towards the 30 hours transfer if you’re NOT doing CAP. If you’re doing CAP, you have to take the approved courses to count towards the 30 hours. The college you’re currently at has to accept the AP scores, than when you transferm the AP credit counts as a equivalent class from where you try to transfer from.
Does anyone know how likely is it to get into your second choice major if you’re rejected from your first choice major?
I just discovered this forum and seeing all your comments really makes me feel nervous! I’m an international student, which makes my odds of entering slightly less, but I’m willing to wait and see the results.
Applied for Mechanical Engineering at Cockrell as first and CNS/Physics as second
3.91 GPA (just one B- )
Univ of Texas at Brownsville student
49 credits
No letters of reccomendation (i got them after the deadline, don’t know if it really matters if i submit them)
Extracurriculars: participated in the TSGC-NASA Design Challenge last semester, and i am also a writing tutor at the university
Essays: 2 strong (i think) ones
I already completed all my calculus courses, and my application has been “in review” since early March. I really hope cockrell sends out decisions soon, though I might have to wait longer than most to hear back. Good luck to all of you!
@gigs94 Depends on how qualified you are for the second major.
@Toastyful Gotcha! I’m not CAP, so I was thinking that maybe they were letting people with less than 30 hours know.
It was a very quite weekend, no new acceptances or rejections. Hope we get some news soon, the wait is unbearable…
@MyUTAustin I know!! I was really hoping to log on this morning and see a bunch of acceptances. Hopefully the start rolling in soon…
Anyone else here put down a deposit at their safety yet? I was hoping I’d hear back from UT by now but had to put down $100 at OSU just to be safe
Do we know around what time decisions usually go out? I’ve heard morning and I’ve heard like 5:00 in the evening?
^ Good question ^
I don’t know. there’s probably no rhyme or reason to it. I don’t think it gets updated as soon as the decision gets made. There’s probably processing time and all that junk for it to actually appear on MyStatus.
My 1st choice is PR and my 2nd is undeclared in COLA
I am also still am waiting to hear back because I have to send my final transcript in because I have less than 30 hours, would it help my chances of getting in if i change my 2nd choice major to make it not be undeclared?
Any engineering acceptance?
We have not heard anything from Cockrell on this thread yet. So strange its so quite today with the day almost gone.
kinda strange… I hope we can hear good news by this week!!
