Created this thread to connect UT Austin Dean’s Scholars applicants. Priority notification is supposed to be by February 1st. Has anyone heard anything yet?
Got my acceptance letter in the mail today!
@HeartOfTheCards Congrats! Did you get in email as well or just in the mail? Do you mind telling your stats too?
@HeartOfTheCards Congrats from me as well! 
Did you check MyStatus often? Also, on the letter, does it say what day it was sent?
@JNicEIce I only got it in the mail. I got a 1550 and am val of a huge public school.
@classical774 Nope! It just randomly appeared in my mailbox one day. The date on the letter says the 18th.
@HeartOfTheCards I got the same SAT score, but I go to a small school. Drats! Whelp, I guess I didn’t get in then (unless they deferred priority applications to the regular round).
@classical774 Don’t lose hope! I’m rooting for you.
Once you get into Deans, does your UTdirect change to reflect that?
Also, how many students are accepted into Deans?
@minimango Yep! My mystatus shows that I was accepted. Also, I think 45 kids end up enrolling? Not 100% sure.
@HeartOfTheCards I don’t think it is 45 students because that is around the number of Deans scholars they have per class and they must accept assuming that not everyone will take the offer…
During info sessions 2 years ago for Dean’s & Turing (I would imagine it also applies to the other CNS honors programs & probably still applicable) we were told they offer to about 80 students expecting around 50 to accept.
@HeartOfTheCards Came back to CollegeConfidential to tell you the good news!! I got into Dean’s Scholars about a month ago! Thank you for rooting for me
@classical774 Yay!!! I’m so proud.
@HeartOfTheCards Did you happen to attend the first open house?
@freshmesh167 @coolguy985 Going through the UT Austin class of 2022 page and looks like you guys missed this page 
@classical774 no I wasn’t there bc I committed to stanford
