Has anyone that applied after the December test heard anything?

Has anyone who was rolled over from ED to RD heard anything?

Has anyone who was rolled over from ED to RD heard anything? Asking for a friend...

Friend who went ED to RD was waitlisted a few weeks ago. That's all I've heard.

Has anyone that applied after the December test heard anything?

I haven't. Applied 1/5, complete 1/12, nothing since.

Got scholarship letter. ~$34k/year. OOS, so was a mix of scholarship and non-resident tuition relief, which is probably the same thing.

I love UT, so I'll be negotiating.

Wow, that was fast! I applied 1/7, complete 1/29. But I haven't heard anything back either.

I got considerably less. I may try to negotiate but it was almost not worth giving. PM me for details, if you want.

Did you get snail mail or email?

What was y'all's timeline between acceptance and scholarship offer?

Accepted just before Christmas.

I should add - the offer isn't as bad as I thought at first. My understanding from someone in the admissions office I spoke with was that in-state tuition was almost a given, but if that's included as scholarship in dollar form, it's not so bad. I think I'll negotiate and see what happens.

Accepted right before Christmas as well.

Is there any benefit to sending an unsolicited Why Texas essay? I'm an OOS splitter and I've been sitting at complete since 12/1 with no contact whatsoever. If I do send the essay, what is the procedure for that? Do i just email it to the admissions office with my name and LSAC#? I would appreciate any advice that anyone can give me.

Just got an email about joining the Class of 2019 Facebook page. But I haven't heard anything about my application since submitting. A positive sign??

Same! Checked the thread and it seems like this means an acceptance, but not confirmed. I would assume it means we're in but I guess it could be a mistake... I thought they call all admits?

Well this is awkward. Lol.

No change to my status checker, by the way.

Anyone who was admitted in January hear back about scholarships yet?

[mornincounselor]

Hi guys!

[QuentonCassidy]

Those who received scholarship: did your message include something about your "credentials placed you in competition to be considered for additional awards, including our endowed full-tuition scholarships"? The scholarship that they emailed me was considerably less than what I expected to receive, given awards I have gotten from other schools, but in the body of the email they included the above quote. It seems odd to me to give out some scholarship and then pretty much say 'but also you might get more.' Does anyone know anything about this, including when I might hear back about the "additional awards"?

Got this too.

Don't know when we will hear. Do know that their consideration process is still going on, so basically we did get the "but you'll get more" message. Seems wise to keep the committee updated if you get a great offer or something like that.

Thanks for the response. Regarding the bolded: if I have received a named (full + stipend) scholarship at a T-14 should I bring that up now, or wait until they get back to me about the additional scholarship?
