TIPS program

<p>I was wondering if anyone has heard back from the TIPS program?</p>

<p>Wow. I just found out 0n 04/10 that I was a DELL Scholar.Today I received email that I was selected as a TIP scholar. Life is good.</p>

<p>I found out that I was selected as a TIP Scholar. Woo :)</p>

<p>I found out today I’m a Tip Scholar!:slight_smile: YAYY, kind of bummed my roommate didn’t get it though:/</p>

<p>I got TIPS Fellows. Are these programs worth it?</p>

<p>Is it easier to get research internships through TIPS Scholars/Fellows?
Are the classes reserved for you important ones?</p>

<p>I got in TIS also! :smiley: kinda excited, hopefully it is worth it! Are all of ya’ll from texas? and when is ya’lls orientation?</p>

<p>Yes, I’m from Texas. My orientation is from July 6-8. What about you?</p>

<p>I’m from Texas too. My orientation is June 13-15 lol. You could go to orientation and tell me what to expect :slight_smile: lol. Do you feel the TIP Scholars Program is something good? I’m kind of worried about it because people from my school that are somewhat smarter than me didn’t get accepted :(</p>

<p>I heard mixed reviews about the program. I’m first in my class and I got accepted. Oh by the way, what’s your major?</p>

<p>Hmm… I’ve heard mixed reviews also… lol. Ahh idk I’m scared… lol. I’m 3rd of my class and got in lol. I’m in CNS and my major was/is chemistry but I plan on switching it to neurobiology :slight_smile: lol.</p>

<p>My major is chemistry also! We could’ve been chemistry buddies! Lol</p>

<p>lmao but you’re going in a diff orientation date… lol. I’m looking for a roommate for my orientation as well as the school year… lol. </p>

<p>yeah we could’ve been chemistry buddies! lol. I took AP chem this year and it was alright… which is what made me wanna switch cause i felt neurobiology was better haha.</p>

<p>Lol. Where are you staying? Chemistry was fun!</p>

<p>Idk yet :frowning: lol. I listed san jacinto and duren as my top 2 choices lol. But I have sophomore/junior friends at UT and they say that mostly all freshmen get Jester :frowning: lol. Upperclassmen get first choice lol.</p>

<p>Chemistry was alright way better than physics though! ■■■■■.</p>

<p>Boo! I wanted to stay at San Jacinto and Duren too but I knew I wouldn’t get them. I’m staying at the Dobie Center because it’s cheaper than San Jacinto and Duren and the rooms are sort of similar. Chemistry is better than physics! I’m taking AP physics right now and it’s killing me! lol</p>

<p>Dobie Center is off campus though right? lol. I so don’t want that :o lol. ugh I want san jacinto or duren! lol. When did you request your housing thing or whatever? I think I did mine in Feb not sure lol. </p>

<p>Oh I took AP Physics last year and yeah it KILLED ME! lol. AP chem this year is alright pulling A’s but I prefer AP bio wayy more haha. and the Brain :slight_smile: lol.</p>

<p>Yeah. It’s right across the street from UT so it’s not that bad lol. I did mine during March I think. I’m not sure. </p>

<p>Was it really that bad? lol. Ugh, I don’t want to take the test.</p>

<p>ohh haha. I dont have a car so it’d be hard for me to live at the Dobie Center lol. Oh lol. I hope Feb was an okay month lol. </p>

<p>and ehh it was alright… since I’m a senior im kinda not caring about ANY AP exam lmao.</p>

<p>I don’t have a car either lol. The website says it’s 15 steps away from the campus so I’ll just be walking.
I dont care about the AP exams either. I’m taking 4 this year. I just want them to be over with already lol!</p>

<p>hmm maybe i’ll look up dobie center lol. is there still room available and stuff? lol. but ahh idk if that’ll work for me because i’m paying UT off with 2 $20,000 scholarships that go straight to UT lol.</p>

<p>ugh you’re so lucky! lol. I’m taking 7 AP exams this year :confused: lol.</p>
