<p>I didn't apply to Texas because I thought that even if I did get in, I would not be able to afford out of state tuition, but just for fun.</p>

<p>So do you think I would've gotten in?</p>
<p>There is not way of knowing for sure whether you would have gotten in or not.</p>
<p>I know that, but hypothetically speaking, if you were to bet money on whether I get in or not, which way would you bet?</p>
<p>I agree with topawala20; no way to know. OOS admissions are tough at UT and some programs, business in particular, are even more competitive. Read some of the threads for McCombs and it will give you some idea. </p>
<p>I know every school seems to do things differently and I haven’t done the math, but it seems difficult to have a 3.2 UW that becomes a 4.8 W.</p>
<p>im not sure, alot of GREAT applicants got CAPd so cant really predict if you would have gotten in, but where are you goin?</p>
<p>o your OOS i would say you might have got in, alot of OOS kids wit stats lower than Texas kids got in so you might havfe got in but IDK</p>
<p>I added 680 for a writing score–I just picked a number I thought you’d be likely to get. That puts your SAT score at 2110, which is good for UT (average 1930).</p>
<p>I think you would have had a shot. Admissions for OOS is VERY competitive, more so if you come from the Northeast (over-represented everywhere). Here’s how it breaks down:</p>
<p>This year, UT automatically accepted the Top 8% of in-state students, or roughly 85%. 5% of spots are reserved for OOS candidates. The remaining 10% is comprised of in-state students. </p>
<p>Spots are highly competitive–the hardest schools to get into are Engineering, Communication and some other math-based ones. The easier ones are Liberal Arts, Fine Arts and Education. (Of course, Fine Arts is somewhat self-selecting–only kids with talent apply). </p>
<p>It is VERY hard to get in if you’re not in the Top 8% in a Texas high school. You stand a shot, but UT Business is incredibly competitive and hard.</p>
<p>Maybe not business but you probably would’ve gotten in.</p>
