do you know how you got your decision so early?

I found out early likely because I was an academic admit. I uploaded my transcript the same day I received my login information and they accepted it the next day and informed me that I was admitted.

Check your howdy tabs people. If you have 6 tabs, expect a decision soon. It’s a great thing!!!

Sorry I’m new to this, what are the howdy tabs?

@TexasScubaGirl
When you log into howdy you will see a list of tabs like “my applicant” and “favorites”. I just saw six last week. I see 6 tabs too! I hope thats a good sign. But…

Question though… how did my friend get admitted before me?

Probably because your friend is in the first quarter, and you are in the second quarter. It looks like you are admitted so that’s awesome!:slight_smile:

Guys, should I be freaking out yet? I applied to and was accepted on September 20th (before the engineering early admissions deadline) to TAMU. I have not yet, however, received word on whether or not I have been accepted into the college of engineering. My ACT Composite score was 32, my SAT (new) score was 1460, I have taken numerous AP classes (including Physics) and am taking several AP classes this year (most important of which are Calculus BC and Physics C). Also I am in the top 2.5% of my class. I’m just concerned that I haven’t been told one way or another yet, and I’m just becoming concerned as I know decisions are made on a rolling basis and the deadline for early admissions announcements (mid-Dec.) is approaching quickly. BTW, my two majors were Computer Engineering and Computer Science.

@pmag21 - don’t worry. Your stats are good and you will get in. My son with top 8% with 32 ACT got admitted to CS.
