@bh8690 No changes in portal at all. It went from the same in review it’s been on for almost two months to the “Gone To Texas” banner. Shortly after you apply new tabs will periodically be added as they update your materials, but that doesn’t mean a decision is imminent.
Applied OCT 1, OOS (coalition app). No changes in tabs since registering with portal. What new tabs have appeared?
@Buddha2024 Apparently, last year admissions started out by letting a very few select people in right before Thanksgiving. This year that happened two weeks ago. Then last year they let in their first larger group on December 7, but according to other sources the larger share of admits went in on December 14 and then they admitted some possibly even later (maybe the following week right before Christmas?) I don’t think that just because some students didn’t hear last night doesn’t mean they won’t hear before the holidays. In fact, my son was on the phone with a friend last night who is in the top 3% of her class so is an autoadmit and she still hasn’t heard on her major yet. She told him that as far as she knows none of the autoadmits at our local high school have got their major yet, so I imagine there will be several more acceptances of holistic students and autoadmits will find out if they get their majors over the next few weeks.
My son checked his portal last night and he was accepted!
When did you apply:10/21
Class Rank:7/834
SAT (with Sub Scores):1520: 740 Reading/Writing, 780 Math
ACT (with Sub Scores):35:35 Math, 35 English, 35 Science, 34 Reading
When did you receive your admission decision:12/5 (that’s when he checked his portal)
Are you an Auto-Admit or Review Admit:Auto
Major:Business
Anyone know if more acceptances are coming out tonight? Also, was there any basis as to who got in last night?
Hats off to all the students got accepted to their majors so far and their parents. You’ve done wonderful jobs.
On a side note, I notice at the bottom of status page today, it shows “Current as of 12/06/2019…” Is this always there? I don’t remember seeing this. Maybe I’m paying too much attention today.
@icedmachiato I noticed this morning that our status page says current as of 12/6/2019. It may have been saying that every day, but like you I’m paying extra attention today. Anyone know what that means? Hopefully, not that my holistic review student has been reviewed and passed over. Stressed!!!
Same. I haven’t heard any of the high achieving auto admits at our competitive school received anything yet. (~900 class size).
Today maybe? I like it that other schools give a definitive date of announcement. Wonder why UT keeps people guessing. My son doesn’t care. But I keep checking. ?
Just noticed. I didn’t pay attention before, but I am guessing it auto populates.
My guess is nothing more this week. Hoping there’s still another wave of acceptances before the holiday
@LunaSky007 , same here. I checked far more frequently than my son and he’s not on any kind of a board like this. You know why we are more neurotic than our kids about the whole process? Three words - In State Tuition! He’d already gotten into A&M with a sizable scholarship because of his national merit status so there was that. However, he wants to double major and they don’t allow you to do that as a business major. He founds some good private schools that allow it BUT then he’d have to go into debt and student loan debt is unwise in this day and age.
Same experience here. Son is in state auto admit, valedictorian in a 500+ school year with a perfect ACT score and lots of leadership/EC’s etc and hasn’t heard back about his (engineering) major yet.
Did any OOS students hear anything?
I didn’t hear back, but i have some friends who have received decisions. They are from New Jersey
@Giulia-Thanks for sharing, do you know what majors they got in ?
So I guess there will be nothing today
My guess is nothing more this week, but really hoping that’s not the last wave before the end of the year…
I read through almost every threads and I still don’t have any clues what the chances are for my son who is applying for Computer Science. Any inputs here is greatly appreciate. Thanks …

Thank you. We checked his portal around 6pm yesterday, when we saw he was admitted. My son had his application in on September 3rd.
I should have recommended that if you are “holistic review” (instead of instate auto top 6%), then also indicate if you are instate or OOS.
