UT Austin 2011/12 Transfer Guide

Colleges and Universities A-Z The University of Texas at Austin
481

<p>It’s a little late, but I got accepted to the College of Natural Sciences (computer science) last thursday.
School: Junior college in California
GPA: 3.57
Classes: about 53 units and currently completing calc III and some general ed courses
Didn’t have much EC’s, just daily trips to the bball gym lol
I feel like my essays had a great role in my acceptance.</p>

<p>It feels great to know I’ll be cheering my favorite college team and living in a city like Austin…congrats to all that got accepted and best of luck to those still waiting, just happy the stress is relieved.</p>

482

<p>Will it help that I am trying to transfer from a four year university opposed to a CC?</p>

483

<p>lauren0925: UT doesn’t care where you transfer from. I mean, I got into McCombs from a CC. It’s all about GPA.</p>

484

<p>Is the resume as important as the GPA?</p>

485

<p>your resume is important b/c it explains more about you … for me it helped show that i am married and a mom so my “EC” are all about my daughter . Also that I worked and was in the military. All of these thing make my application look very different in some aspects than other applicants.</p>

486

<p>But you GPA is more important to get you “in to door” so to speak</p>

487

<p>@moniso I’m from Mexico too and no word from UT yet. I’m guessing it’s because I haven’t completed my hours yet and they’re waiting for my updated transcript? Who knows…
If I know anything important I’ll let you know ;)</p>

<p>Suerte</p>

488

<p>Is it likely that I will be able to get into COLA undeclared with a 3.45?</p>

489

<p>accepted into my first choice major!!! Will they let you know if you got accepted to your second choice?
If it helps anyone I sent in my transcript/application on the very last day (march 1)</p>

490

<p>“Congratulations! You have been admitted to your second-choice major in the College Of Liberal Arts ( Latin American Studies ) at UT Austin. Discover more about your admission and find out what to do next to begin your Longhorn experience.”
GPA: 3.51</p>

<p>I’m glad I finally heard back, but I’m a little disappointed about not getting my first choice(Advertising) although I knew it probably wasn’t going to happen. If I finish this semester with all A’s my GPA will come up to a 3.7. Does anyone know if I can appeal in this type of situation. Then again I would’ve had pass an intro class to stay in the advertising program, which I’ll be taking anyway for my internal transfer to ADV. So on the bright side, I will pay a slightly lower COLA tuition my first year before transferring to Communications.</p>

<p>what am I ranting about. I AM IN!!! Good Luck everyone!</p>

491

<p>So was kusumuthram just bsing about the 3.5 GPA rule for having your decision appealed? If so I guess its not even worth it.</p>

492

<p>Accepted Undergraduates Undecided!
GPA: 3.7</p>

<p>Lets hope I hear something about RTF soon! :D</p>

493

<p>Congrats Dark. May I ask what is RTF?</p>

494

<p>Radio-Television-Film</p>

<p>I’m just happy I got accepted, I’m finally going!</p>

495

<p>Congrats, DarkRyder and Whale!</p>

<p>@police RadioTelevisionFilm
@dark Undecided was your second choice right? Or is RTF a whole nother application that your still waiting for?
@jchap I wouldn’t take anything that person said seriously, but what are you referring to in particular?
@Whaleinthesky I think you only get admitted to one.</p>

496

<p>@ozzy906: Yeah it was my second choice</p>

497

<p>no one has heard from Bio medical Engineering yet? My brother applied for BME 1st choice and Petro 2nd choice, still waiting for the decision. 3.93 gpa :(</p>

498

<p>Congrats Darkryder and Ozzy!!! So glad you’re in. The hard parts over you can always transfer after a semester in undergraduates. I heard its even easier to transfer internally since you are already with UT. Hope to see you on campus :slight_smile:
Congrats Whaleinthesky</p>
