@TXDad56 Thanks for your comments regarding LAH.
@kg2013 , oh my, okay then! She has zero coding experience or computer science classes under her belt so we knew just getting into Computer Science at UT would be a stretch! Still wondering about Engineering Honors perhaps? Has anyone gotten into Engineering Honors?
@TXRunningMom Do you mind sharing stats and when she received a decision? Still waiting to hear from CNS!
@kansha , I feel your pain! My daughter applied when the app first opened (August I think?) and heard back with that first wave (October I think?). She has a 36 ACT; 1550 SAT; NMSF; #1/36 class rank; Student Body President; lots of AP classes; lots of leadership, extra curriculars, sports, state level placements for debate, math, literary criticism (beauty of a small Christian school—the kids can do it all). She attended the First Bytes computer science camp at UT last summer which I suspect was very helpful in getting into CS (her school doesn’t offer any computer science classes; she has zero experience). Good luck in hearing an acceptance this week!!
Nope - no changes on mine
they don’t do any rejections, CAP program or PACE program until 1/31-2/1 …
I signed into my son’s application status page this morning and there was a Welcome to be a Longhorn site instead. Unfortunately, that is now gone. However, the dashboard has a Freshman 2019 admit tab - with no link. Anyone have any insight? Could they be updating status’, but not yet making it official? Or just a total site glitch?
No changes here. I’d guess it’s a glitch, but who knows.
For context- auto admit, applied 9/9, no response at all yet.
@tltober no change on ours…maybe a glitch but I would be very excited to see that glitch on our status! ? seems like it can’t be a bad sign for sure!
Pretty sure that tab has been there in the dashboard for some time …
@Mills6 - on your “dashboard” tab are you saying you don’t have a “freshman admission” tab ??
@UTWannabe23 nothing has changed…that freshman application thing over on the right that has his major requests on it is there, but it has always been there. I do not have any new tabs anywhere
After being rejected by my ED school NYU, UT is really my first choice, of course not counting those lottery schools (not reach schools) I applied (CMU and USC). First choice CS, second choice undecided, international but currently in high school in state, sat 1440, toefl 101, gpa 93.8ish, 1AP, and 3 more on the way. Wish for the best y’all!
Already accepted at Purdue for Computer Science yesterday. Still waiting on UT. Given what I’m reading, probably low chance, but still…refresh, refresh, refresh…
In state Texas
SAT 780M, 690V, GPA 4.3w
Multiple APs include CompSci (AP score=4)
Very good ECs but no computer science or programming experience; school doesn’t really offer other than the AP CompSci class.
@Mills6 on your status page there is a tab labeled “dashboard” - if you click on that there should be listing for “Freshman Admissions” … that is what the earlier posting was referring to as “new” and i believe that it was there all along - you then said that you couldn’t find that tab and i was trying to assist you in finding it …
UT posted on their website last Thursday that there would be 3,000 additions to the UT class of 23 “this week” and that 6,000 acceptances have already been released (in the end there will be about 17,000). Does anyone know when this large wave of 3,000 is supposed to be released?
I think “this week” meant last week as that column was written on the 10th. There are about 8,000 more acceptances to go.
Last weeks acceptances started showing up here around 7pm last Thursday - however, there is clearly no rhyme or reason to this admission process.
does it send an email to check the portal for decision? DD is OOS engr
did anyone get news tonight or is the next wave coming later in the week?
