Hello. I was looking at previous years and thought I would start a conversation for this year. My daughter had everything turned in October 1. She has an interview scheduled Monday evening. We are very excited! Her school does not rank so we are on pins and needles about her even getting into UT! Crazy. Anyone have any informations out that? Surely if she got an interview she will get into McCombs? Anyone else interviewing soon or have some interview tips?
In my opinion, an interview for BHP is a very good sign that she is getting into McCombs even if she does not get BHP. I have watched BHP applicants in this forum for three years and can’t recall anyone getting an interview who did not get into McCombs. Does that mean it never happens? No idea, but seems like a very good sign to me.
Thanks! I went back and looked at threads and this looks like a very early interview. I am assuming it is because the Oct 15 deadline is gone and it is all rolling admissions. I am hoping people will start posting on here when decisions start rolling out. Maybe they will come earlier too!
My son had an interview last Sunday for BHP and I was wondering when he would hear anything…getting into McCombs and also BHP…does anyone know a timeline?
I would love to know also! Is he an automatic admit?
Yes, he is an automatic admit…
I just applied today. My school still has to send in my resume and rec letters. Did they reach out to schedule the interview? If so, how long after applying did you hear from them? @Mills6
She completed her basic application a few weeks ago. Honors essays, recommendations, and transcripts were sent Friday and Saturday. She got an email from business honors Thursday and immediately after from her interviewer. I bet getting it in this early helps get a quick call. Good luck!
My son also heard back very quickly after sending in all his paperwork for honors…received an email and then scheduled his interview for a few days later…
Thank you for your responses @Ex85 and @Mills6 - I just saw that my application submission was completed today. Hopefully I hear back from them by the end of the week or early next week. I’ll post an update.
Unless something has REALLY changed, everyone who applies does not get an interview. They have changed to rolling admissions for BHP so getting things in early can help get an earlier look.
But anyone reading this thread needs to know there is no guarantee of an interview -unless something has changed.
I read that they give about 420 interviews and offer about half of those spots in the program.
From what I’ve read (according to data from past years), we can expect to receive emails on Thursday when they go through applications.
Acceptances to university? So early? That would be really nice! Where did you see that? Only for auto admits?
My son checked his status today and it finally said that he had been admitted to The University as an automatic admit…so now we wait for hopefully McCombs and then BHP…good luck to everyone…
Im referring specifically to receiving interviews. It looks like there’s a trend in which interview requests are sent out on Thursday afternoons. It’s consistent with this and last year @Ex85
My son received his text about a BHP interview on Sept. 28th…a Thursday…
My daughters was a Thursday also. Good luck!
Status is now “in review” anyone know how long they stay in review?
