<p>I can see these admissions working in tandem. </p>
<p>When we went to the Admissions sessions they said that all the admissions into a particular major were holistic. They said that auto admit was only into UGS.</p>
<p>Maybe I misunderstood what was said …</p>
<p>How does one get waitlisted instead of CAP’ed? Is waitlisted mean you do not get to use the CAP program? or Is CAP just used as an rejection?</p>
<p>international students hear mid-March…that sucks :(</p>
<p>CAP means “you’ve been denied, but go to UT___, complete 30 hours of approved coursework, get a 3.2 and come back next year”</p>
<p>waitlisted means “we’re waiting for space to clear up, and if it does you’ll be admitted”</p>
<p>i’m not sure how they pick and choose, the waitlist only consists of a couple hundred students. CAP is only for in-state applicants and i’m not quite sure if they all get it.</p>
<p>Thank you jamtastique.</p>
<p>UTAustinR:
Since I have been admitted to McCombs (yesterday) but have not had a BHP interview, where do I stand? I got a phone call several months ago from BHP about my interest level and was invited to a small group meeting (six students) in my city. No alumni interview, though.</p>
<p>Tiger, it’s hard to say. They are saying their applicant pool was over 1,000 this year–largest pool yet, so the competition was pretty fierce. I wouldn’t freak out though until March–you could still be on the list for an interview.</p>
<p>Accepted to School of Social Work!

<p>Accepted to McCombs today! I found out I was accepted to UT in late December but I’ve been waiting forever to hear about McCombs. I’m so excited! I can’t wait to come!
Here are my stats:</p>
<p>OOS (Florida)
4.75 W (out of 5) and 4.00 UW (out of 4)
IB Diploma so I’ve taken virtually only IB/AP classes
ranked 14/550 so top 3%
ACT-29
SAT II’s: Math(2)-750 Chem-690
Pretty good amount of community service/extracurricular activities plus I’ve had a job since junior year
I think my essays were good but I think what really got me in was the rigor of my schedule and gpa/class rank</p>
<p>Definitely going to attend and cannot wait to be on campus again! Go Horns!</p>
<p>Soo if I still haven’t heard is that a bad sign?</p>
<p>CAPed.</p>

<p>This sucks, as I’m looking at the stats of some people who actually got in, I feel so frustrated. I also feel so bad for one of my friends: his rank was close to mine, he had a 2320 on his SAT and he got CAPed as well. They really need to get rid of this top 8 rule. But i’ve gotten over that depressed mood, and I’m excited for college! I still don’t know where I’ll end up: UTSA or A&M? </p>
<p>I’ll be taking classes like Calc I, Chem 101, Bio 101 during freshman year, which college will be easiest to get a 4.00?</p>
<p>I’m sorry you were not admitted. What I have heard is that if having UT on your diploma is your dream, then you definitey should go with the CAP program. Best luck on a happy freshman year, no matter where you attend. If you have already served our country, thank you for your service!</p>
<p>Accepted at Undergraduate Studies!
I can’t wait to go to UT in the Fall. I’ve been waiting so long to hear back from them!</p>
<p>ACT: 30
SAT: 1970
Rank: top 31% 133/423
GPA: 3.8
LOTS of extracurriculars, strong essays, lots of volunteer work, etc.
and I added things to my application that UT didn’t ask for, which I think helped a lot.</p>
<p>out of state</p>
<p>@TAustinR …</p>
<p>Typically how are teh BHP interview invites sentout? Email? Snail Mail? Phone Call? Also, is there any possibility of interview invites this late into the admissions process?</p>
<p>Thanks for sharing the information with us.</p>
<p>Usually an alum will email the student to set up a phone call. Sometimes alums call to set up a time to meet in person, but that’s pretty rare. </p>
<p>There are probably still some pending interviews… I honestly don’t know. It’s a possibility though.</p>
<p>Accepted to ChemE as my second choice major (got rejected from BME) and got rejected from EHP. Yay?</p>

I’m so happy for you!! Seeing the magic posting on a Sunday must have been a wonderful surprise - I guess the adm staff is working overtime to get everyone an answer as quickly as possible. Isn’t the feeling wonderful, like you can finally breathe again?</p>
<p>Yeah completely! I was freaking out when they didnt tell me on Friday and I checked my status today out of habit but I didn’t expect it to be different. I am soooo happy this is the best feeling in the world!
Congrats to everyone else as well :)</p>
