UT Austin transfer

<p>So I'm currently attending community college and I really want to go to UT next fall, I'm going to have 22 hours done by the time I apply and 14 in progress, I think I can get a 3.7-4.0 gpa easily if I try, I want to apply to liberal arts college, I was pretty confident I had a good chance at getting in but when I talked to some people from UT they told me that I will be at a disadvantage because I won't have the 30 hours done, and that they prefer those with 30 hours done, is it true, should I even bother applying? If someone who has gotten in without having the 30 hrs done or someone who know could help me it would be great.</p>
