UT Austin Fall 2019 Transfer

@OChemSucks what are you applying for? We are so close April, we can almost taste the decisions. The anxiety is killing me…

@FutureMDBabe I applied to CNS for Enviro, but I placed my second major as Biology. I also have the option to change my major; however, I wouldn’t change ANYTHING. I mean if it were me, I wouldn’t change anything. Lets cross our fingers that we won’t be last to know the final decisions. Good Luck!!!

@FutureMDBabe I wouldn’t recommend changing it. It highly about changing it too but I really believe it might not be a good idea.

@FutureMDBabe I changed my major, but not really. I didn’t have a second major at all, so I added a second major, I also did this before the official due date. If you’re in review it’s probably not the best idea to change it.

does anyone know how much space the CAP kids take up, since I am applying as an external transfer into the college of liberal arts?

Hey guys, just thought I’d share my stats
First choice: Psychology
Second Choice: Social work
GPA:3.66
Transferring from ACC with 38 completed hours and working on 6 more this semester
2 essays - very heartfelt, I got them reviewed by my advisor and received really positive feedback
3 LORs
~300 volunteer hours
Texas Resident

A little worried about my GPA being on the lower side. I’ve heard 3.5-3.6 is typically what COLA looks for but UT as a whole has gotten increasingly more competitive from transfer sooo I’m pretty nervous.

I went into review around Mar 2nd/3rd! Good luck to everyone

@FutureMDBabe I was gonna change mine but it said I couldn’t so idk!

^ It said “Because the application deadline has passed, you may not update your first- or second-choice major selections.”

Ah, thanks! I just wanted to change my second choice to something in COLA, so by the off chance they let me into my second choice, I’m less likely to be rejected completely. Oh well though! Fingers crossed for CNS & good luck to both of us!

By any chance, can any of you guys access the degree audit off of the UT site? I was reading in the previous threads that there was a small correlation where if you could run your degree audit and a percentage of completion appears, your chances of being accepted were higher. IDK if this is true, but there were a lot of people who said they got accepted, and they could look at their degree audit.

@EVSLOVE the degree audit is to be taken with a grain of salt as said in the previous thread. There were students who could access the degree audit and got denied and then there were some who couldn’t and still got accepted. Do not stress about this. The only thing determining our admissions decision is the admissions office themselves. I repeat do not stress the degree audit at all!!

Yeah. I don’t think degree audits mean too much, I’ve gotten them every time and been rejected twice.

Do all of the waves come out on Friday’s? I believe all of the freshmen admissions came out on Friday’s so I just wanted to see if it was the same.

@walk-456 I believe most of their waves do come out on Fridays. However, in previous threads, there were some who got their admission decisions on a Wednesday or a Thursday. But really hoping for something to come this Friday! ??

Does anyone know if they are going to send out decisions in April, or is it just speculation at this point? I feel like I will be anxiously checking mystatus untill June :disappointed:

.

You can definitely call admissions and ask when the next wave is coming out, but other than that it could be from April to June.

if you have 24 hours complete when applying you would find out mid april correct?

Hey guys, so I called and asked and they told me that only students who have automatic transfers will be notified. That first the international students will be notified in May, and that the other students (in state and out of state) will be fully notified by June. She did say that some students will get their decisions earlier than others, She told me, personally for CNS, to not expect any notification untill May or June. :frowning:

Have any COLA majors on this thread received notice about whether they’ll be admitted or not?

@jeanmarie nothing yet :confused:
