<p>I read on this forum in another post that certain schools at UT are not going to automatically accept students based on rank any longer, and that each student will be looked at holistically for the business and the engineering schools. After reading this, I called the Dallas Admissions Office asking to verify this, and they said that this is true, and that this new policy will be put into action this year. They also said that it will be throughout each school within UT (business, engineering, CNS, etc.) I then asked if he knew when UT would be releasing any news online about this new admissions policy, and he said that he doesn't know for sure, but he is assuming that it will be soon because of the application opening on August 1st. </p>
<p>Does anybody here have more information about this? Any information would be greatly appreciated!</p>
