@txmom9977 it seems that everyone is getting the Howdy Notification pop up.
They must have fixed the issue. Not getting the Howdy Notification anymore.
Reading tea leaves? We we’re hoping for a hidden meaning!
We go to a private christian college prep school in Dallas and our college guidance counselor told us that in a recent Texas A&M admissions meeting she was told Auto Admits would roll out September and they would start rolling out Review Admits as early as October!!! Hoping & praying!
@twintoAM It’s got to mean something! We will read messages into anything at this point!
I had not even noticed that the notification box was no longer there. I guess I got so use to it, it was not even bothering me anymore.
@aggrad91 , thanks for sharing! That is exciting news for review admits especially!
Dug out the old archive of notes and found this regarding when students began hearing of admission decisions.
Note: In the past, only a handful of review admits received admission to the university before the Christmas break. The deadline for this cycle of applications is December 1 with supporting docs due December 15. The university MUST accept and admit all top 10%, thus, very few review admit spots will be forthcoming until after the deadline. Auto admits must be placed first. Only then, will they know how many spots are available to review admits.
The first date is when Auto and Academic Admits began to receive notification of acceptance. The second date is when review applicants began receiving a decision. If there is no second date, that is because review admits did not receive a decision before Christmas break.
I guess I got busy and didn’t write down the date auto/academics were admitted in 2016 but did note the review admit dates. I will look into it later. I

What tabs are you referring to?
@babymomma When you first apply to TAMU, in the Application Information System, you have 3 tabs (Home, Applicant and… not sure of the other one). Once you are admitted, or once you are about to be admitted, you will get 6 tabs (Home, Applicant, My Record, My Finances, Student Life, and My Howdy). Sometimes, you will get the 6 tabs before you receive official notice that you are being offered admission. It is sometimes the first change you see that let’s you know something may happen soon. However, I have seen that last year there were some issues where people got 6 tabs and then later it reverted back to 2 (not sure if they were ultimately offered admission.)
My son submitted his application and linked his SRAR. Everything has a green checkmark except the class rank which has “X” so his app status is “InComplete”. He goes to a non-ranking high school, so he cannot complete the rank. Does anyone know when the class rank will appear and/or the status will change to “Complete”? Thanks!
@Noviite , I didn’t record it but it seems like it was about 48 hours before his class rank showed up (homeschooled). I don’t know how busy they are getting at this point; that was about a month ago. I would give it 2-3 days easily before investing too much time worrying about it! haha
@ChillyCow, thanks for the info!
@ChillyCow, his rank got computed already and app status is complete. Thanks for the info! It is hard to not worry. Now the waiting begins…
@Aguadecoco @MizLucyB , @DawnMH , y’all got the 6 tabs a while back, right? Have your kids gotten acceptances yet?
Nothing official yet! And, I haven’t said a word to him about it but I did let him go to a XC meet instead of taking the ACT last week. 
Can’t wait!
Nothing official yet here.
@ChillyCow nothing official yet here either, everyone was saying last year 9/10 for auto admit top 10% but the app opened 7/1 for them and 8/1 for this year.
So there is a UT auto admit who got their acceptance over on the UT page! I know we have a long time to wait in my household but the time will get shorter as auto admits get their acceptances!
