Email them. That's what I did when I was in the first wave of admin dings. They fixed it, apologized, and accepted me a few weeks later. They were really professional about it.

Sounds like the latter. I trust your Why Tx was submitted by the deadline given.

There have been people WL'ed after Why TX, but I would ask just to be sure.

Just got a reply from the Dean. Super helpful. The Why Texas? becomes available to them as soon as it's sent. So even though I got the confirmation of receipt this morning, they reviewed it yesterday and made their decision before it was administratively added to my file.

For everyone getting wait listed: what are your stats if you don't mind my asking! I am still waiting for a decision and am curious to know where I think I stand. I'm assuming I will be WL as well!

Waitlisted! Any advice? Should I send a LOCI, visit the campus, update my resume?

Got the WL email today, feel free to PM me for stats (in-state). Congrats to those already in, and good luck to those joining me on the WL

Just a PSA: if you're a 0L who decides to sit in on a class, don't answer questions. Every student will be making fun of you after and we don't care what you have to say. I often think my classmates don't have valuable insight, let alone someone who hasn't been in class or read the material. You'll have plenty of time to gun when you're a 1L.

They knew to put the insufferable gunning 0Ls in with s4. All we've had in s2 are silent and unnoticeable 0Ls.

We also had someone taking notes in con law. Idgi, because I've been going all semester and idk what's going on in there. Idk how a 0L taking notes could keep track.

Anyone know a timeline on hearing back about FAFSA fin aid? I believe the CASH website said they will begin reviewing Feb 15th.

The 509 shows some pretty substantial grants (83% receive a grant, at an average of $9.7k). This is completely separate from the scholly amount, correct? Any current/former students confirm the grant situation?

Is it the same student? There are some freakishly smart students anywhere, although I can't imagine anyone of that intelligence not pursuing an undergraduate thesis/Plan II degree at UT lol.

He was probably trying to impress somebody, though lol.

I'm not sure I follow. I know a lot of people who passed up Plan II for other opportunities.
