Wait Listed - Accepted/Chances of getting into your first choice major/Re-evaluation?

I just received my wait listed status yesterday from UT. I know that I will most likely have to commit to another university since the wait list doesn’t get looked at until after May 1, but has anyone that has been wait listed been accepted for their first choice major? Also, has anyone who has been reevaluated been accepted for their first choice major?

I also got wait listed and from what I read on another forum our only chance of getting in is through appealing. Supposedly the numbers of students who got off the wait list have become dramatically low. Fingers crossed though.

@orangestar You’re right. I have a friend who was wait listed as well. She appealed last week and was accepted this week. I just submitted my appeal yesterday. Best of luck to you!

How does one appeal the University of Texas’ decision? And to whom?

What does one have to say?

My son got CAP and we are appealing the decision since his transrcipt was incorrect (GPA, ranking and service hours) . Anyone know how long does it take for the appeal process to be completed? He is applying to CNS - Neuroscience.

Can he change his major to UGS to increase his chances?

My daughter was wait listed back in February but was interview by an admission counselor about 10 days ago…no responds yet…has anyone been down this route?
