<p>i know there are already a bunch of acceptance threads, but to me it feels like they're only meant for acceptances and makes others feel out of place.</p>
<p>i haven't gotten my decision yet, but i'm just making this since we'll get them this week. acceptances give an idea of what the admissions office is looking for, as well as denials, so this is also helpful to juniors and below, imo.</p>
<p>so post your stats (as much as you feel comfortable with posting), which colleges you applied to, and your decision. if not accepted, post where you'll go instead if you do/don't get offered CAP. waitlisted? post too!</p>
<p>best of luck to everybody.. stay strong, stay positive, and remember that even if you don't get accepted this year, you can still be UT Austin's graduating class of 2015! <3</p>

I used to go to a very rigourous private school until my parents moved cities last year
currently taking 5 AP classes</p>
<p>My stats arent stellar but my community service and the clases that I have taken (mostly honors & APs) have been really rigourous. I accepted the wait list offer</p>
<p>CAP is the Coordinated Admissions Program. it’s for denied in-state students, and basically it means you go any of UT’s satellite schools for a year, then (upon completion of the requirements) you get automatic acceptance to UT Austin your sophomore year. here, i’ll link ya.</p>
<p>i’ll be going to UTSA since it’s in my city.</p>
<p>oh here are my stats:</p>
<p>CAP’d, attending UTSA
In-State, Public TX HS

Applied to COLA (psychology BS) 1st choice, CONS (biology) 2nd choice</p>
<p>ldboy got into Cockrell ChemE as well. No word on Engineering Honors.</p>
<p>Stats (remembering them as best I can): </p>
<pre><code> ACT - C34 M36 and I forget the others
SAT - W750, CR750 M720
SAT II - MathL2 800, BioM 740
(I think I posted 750 on the BioM someplace else, but that is incorrect.)
Unwtd GPA - 3.8 Wtd - 6.8
AP Scholar at end of junior year
Rank: barely top 5% (large Houston public)
Extracurriculars: Regional and state recognition
(No national recognition other than NM.)
Leadership: drumline captain, band, clubs
Community service: less than 50 hours per year accumulated…drumline and band
consume most of his time.

<p>Other acceptances: TAMU Engineering, Mines. Waiting to hear from Stanford, Duke, Rice. Highly likely he will attend UT based on quality of curriculum in relationship to cost to attend. In other words, if accepted to Duke, Stanford or Rice, they’d have to come up with merit money which would be unusual. He attended Honors Colloquium over the summer and likes UT a lot. </p>
<p>To those cap’d. A year goes by amazingly fast. You will be at UT before you know it and you will be Longhorn Class of 2015.</p>
