Summer/Fall 2015 Transfer Thread

holy heck it just gets keeps getting pushed further and further…

also does anyone know if the people who already have their 30+ hours completed need to send in their transcripts at the end of this semester?

@cathys424 I emailed the admissions today and asked the same question and also asked when we should hear decisions… This is what I got:
"You will need to submit a final transcript from you current institution once your grades have been posted. Failure to submit this item could result in a withdrawal of your admission offer if you are admitted.

We are expecting to have all transfer decisions within the next several days, so keep an eye on your MyStatus page for the time being."

I think it’s not really required as the decisions will be made mostly on the material already in, but everyone is sending them in to save some time just in case they come looking for it. Mine will be ready by end of next week so will be able to send it over after 5/20 or so.

@ab1omo23 @rjc016 @MyUTAustin What did the housing email say? I didn’t get anything and my housing thing still says they will notify me when I receive a contract… I accepted admission a couple weeks ago, if that makes any difference.

Lol I love how we (on one and the same day) have heard that decisions will be out “in August”, “mid June”, “early June” and “next few days.” Guess it’s all just a waiting game. Maybe we will all end up staying at motel 6 the first months lol

This is the email I got from UT Housing today:

Greetings from the UT Austin Housing Team -

We are updating our wait list and would like to know if you are still interested in on-campus housing. If you are still interested in on-campus housing, please respond to this email by noon on Friday, May 15. If you do not respond, your application will be automatically canceled.

We are currently offering contracts in application date order, with priority to first-time freshmen. We cannot guarantee an offer,​ but will continue to offer contracts throughout the summer as space allows.

I replied back saying, yes I am interested and they instantly sent a thank you reply, acknowledging my request.

@MyUTAustin Thanks. I hope that not getting an email means I will have a space. P.S. anyone interested in being roommates? When we get a housing offer we can put the EID of the roommate we want.

@MyUTAustin Nevermind… I just checked my spam and found out all emails from them have been going to spam… -_- this explains a lot

@JMag95 Good thing you found it before the deadline.

Great… so not even the admissions people know when we’ll find out.

Guys, the anxiety is killing me. I have been checking my status everyday, and it still shows my profile is in review. Does anyone know what that is supposed to mean? Do you actually recommend me to give admission a call??

Please help me.

@cokeforlife welcome to the anxiety club lol, there are quite a few of us here. Honestly, it does not “mean” anything more than that the decisions are slower than usual this year. There are tons of people waiting and very few have found out. I do not think calling admissions will help, thy will just give you a general idea of when decisions will come, and that answer will vary depending upon who you talk to. Try not to worry too much, unfortunately all we can do is wait.

I’m a bit worried because I was hoping to just transfer to Austin. I currently attend Arlington didn’t take CAP so I could take 8k in scholarship money. I just hope I get in so I don’t regret not taking CAP.

Since most COLA decisions came out at the expected time for people with 30+ hours, will they be on time for people completing their 30 hours as well?

@ecollin Thanks bro, what you said is quite comforting. seems like i am not the only one, lol.

But yeah, the process this year is extremely slow, which may be due to its upward national ranking

I am also waiting for UT austin transfer decision. hope you see you in next semester in UT

I JUST sent my final transcript and I’m already compulsively refreshing MyStatus waiting for Complete/In Review. It’s hard to believe that it is now completely out of my hands. Wow. There is nothing that I can do now.

@Geekytheatregeek Boy do I envy your position right now. I still have 1 more exam tomorrow and its the hardest one yet. I too can’t wait until I can focus 100% on waiting for the admissions to hurry up (Not sarcasm). I’ve been waiting for a long time and I wish I don’t have to wait any longer.

Hi guys! I have been reading this thread for months, and I just found out that I accepted to COLA economics. My first choice was McComb Accounting, but I got into Econ which was my second choice.
