*AP Classes taken: AP Physics C:E&M (this year), AP Seminar (this year), AP Calculus BC (this year), AP Macro (this year), AP Gov (this year), AP Calculus AB (got a 5 lol yet I have a 1340), AP Chemistry (got a 3), AP Psychology, AP Computer Science (got a 4), AP Literature, AP Stats (got a 4), AP Physics 1.

*Okay extracurriculars, lots of volunteer hours.

*Awesome teachers who wrote 3 recommendation letters

@990725 and @hustling congrats. What were you acceptance dates? My son got accepted mid December and I have not seen anyone with December acceptance date receiving AES yet (at least not on this board).

@plano2018 I was accepted December 4th.

@plano2018 Thanks! I was accepted November 28th.

@Shadowsych Did your AES stat show up on your Galaxy account?

I see mine show up today @990725

Got admitted on Dec.20th. No AES info. yet. Did anybody got AES, who admitted around Dec.20th

Received TPEG grant of $7000. But nothing mentioned regarding AES. Cannot afford UTD without AES, since I am OOS.

Hi guys, I got accepted at UTD on December 8 but I did not recieve AES the first round. I asked for a re-review of my application and the AES Office replied to me and told me that I got the AES Distinction level award. If you havent recieved AES yet and feel like you deserve it I would suggest that you email them.

Just received Distinction after reconsideration. feelsgoodman

Do we have to provide all the stats when requesting reconsideration for AES? What all the information need to send? Whom we should address for reconsideration? Please answer these questions. Appreciate your help.

I emailed interest@utdallas.edu and got a reply. I recommend everyone to ask for a reconsideration. @ALFRED2017

@throwawaycc0207 @StagnantApe Can you please share your stats? I received achievement and dying to get distinction. I have worked very hard for it and it will be a dream come true. I emailed them for a reconsideration. Btw where did y’all email?

@Pro1234

I emailed admission-status@utdallas.edu and got replied 11 days later.

Stats: International, 1450 SAT, 800 Math 2, UW GPA 3.9, really good ECs and many academic awards

I only sent an updated transcript and some words saying that UTD is my first choice and I want to be reconsidered

@throwawaycc0207 Did they offer you any AES award before reconsideration?

@CertifiedCC yes, they offered me Achievement level award

@Pro1234 I scored 33 on ACT and 1400 on SAT but only sent my ACT. I have a 3.75 GPA unweighted. In the email I just explained how I could not attend UTD without the AES scholarship. I also explained why I deserved the award. Hope that helps and just PM me if you have any questions

I emailed them and they said that they could not provide me AES as it has become very competitive. Does anyone know what other scholarships are available to me as an International student? The website is super complicated and most scholarships are only for In-state students.

@asking4help2 if you dont mind me asking, what are your stats? If it is above the average for aes, you might have a chance if you appeal.

So I just got UT Dallas AES w/ Honors OOS? Can someone explain to me what this is and what this entails? And does it disqualify me from having a chance at the McDermott scholarship?
