UT austin 2017/2018 Transfer Thread

@Fudgerino Oh wow! What school did you apply to?

I am so nervous about this transfer. It seems UT takes forever

Online it said that transfer applicants can find out as late as June 15th. I think thatā€™s absolutely crazy. Itā€™s going to be hard scrambling to get housing, financial aid, registration, and all the other stuff in order within that time frame, but hey, itā€™s possible.

Transfer admissions is much different than first-year. Knock on wood but not everyone can/will get in - that just means they could be scrambling to finish the matriculation process at another university for the fall that late.

This is honestly such a stupid question, but does anyone know what the application will say when itā€™s in review? Will it just straight up say your application is in review or will it say something else?

Hey everyone, Friday I logged into My status and saw that they were lacking my ā€œSpring 2018ā€ transcripts. Since the spring semester isnā€™t over for me that is literally impossible. I logged into My status yesterday and received the rejection letter VIA my status. I was heartbroken. This doesnā€™t make any sense because they received the transcripts I sent from ACC on March 1st. I have a 3.7 GPA and applied to COLA as a government major. I had 14 hours of credit for the fall and I am taking 16 right now during the spring. I plan on going in person to the admissions office on Monday. If this wasnā€™t a mistake I will be devastated because Iā€™ve worked very hard to build up my resume. Do any of you all have any thoughts or advice ?

Yes !! this has happened to me!!

@awesomesaucee I applied to the College of Natural Sciences - Major in Comp Sci

thats really weird, if you sent your transcripts on march 1st, they should be able to see that it was in progress. I would totally talk to them in person.

@awesomesaucee on a whim I changed my first choice from mechanical to compsci. Second choice is still civil. Do you think Iā€™d have a chance at getting into compsci with a 3.92 if I was previously in engineering classes? Also, does making compsci my first choice hurt my chances of getting civil as my second? Iā€™ve kind of been assuming that Iā€™d get into civil for sure, but I worry that they wont consider me

@elijahtom I think you have a good shot at Comp Sci with a 3.92. However, I do think it hurts your chances from getting into Civil as a second because UT prioritizes candidates who choose competitive majors as their FIRST choice

Anyones app in review yet? Mine is still saying application is complete for admission

@YungManZ Lol no. Man this sucks.

@YungManZ same this sucks

Anyone else really annoyed! Haha

Yes :((

Itā€™s not looking good guys.

Same, I hope they still reply to us at least by the end of April.

Ugh, this agony is terrible!! I canā€™t imagine how people dealt before there were computers and the internet! I AM SO ANXIOUS for ANY update. I wish theyā€™d be more explicit with their own deadlines. I know itā€™s not black and white, but still, itā€™d be nice if once they sorted who was applying to what colleges, they would like put out an approximate time frame for each school and/or major. Lol, I guess thatā€™d be a lot of work though!

no

You CS kids get to at least hear back in Mid April where as people in McCombs donā€™t hear back until the deadline in MID JUNE
