Is Transfering from UTD to UT at Austin a smart thing to do? I did not apply to UT so therefore I did not get CAP’ed, but i did get accepted into UTD.
Depends on the major and other factors (# of hours, required classes and grades in certain courses per major selection, etc.) The UT website for transfers has a lot of info.
UTD has done a great job building a top flight school in its own right, and also in one of the best metro areas in the country.
It really depends on the major. UT Austin is cutthroat for business and engineering. If you plan to major in those, you should find out if you’re accepted into the major program after taking their prerequesites. Otherwise it’s not worth going there at all. That being said, UTD is a solid school and it’s a top tier school in the middle of Dallas. There internships everywhere.
