Don’t feel bad. I applied October 4th, was held, and I am still waiting on a decision. I am from Lubbock and I love Tech. I wish I had chosen the early decision option. Hopefully a decision will come soon.
Well a long wait is good right? At least they are strongly considering everything that I put into my application. I really hope I find out this week!
Same! Good luck!

Good luck to you as well! I'm crossing my fingers for good news tomorrow!

I applied ED on 11/14 but I also registered to retake lsat in Dec. Well, they decided to place me on hold 12/16 and I haven't heard anything since. I guess my point is you're not alone. Good luck to both of you!

In with 158/3.89 but no scholarship $$$. Should this be expected? I thought I would get at least something

Definitely not expected. I'd say that scholarship info may be on its way (but someone applying this cycle will be better able to tell you). If not, definitely talk to dean perez and let them know you are interested and what kind of scholarship it would take for you to attend. Texas public schools got hit pretty hard a couple years ago with the state budget cuts, so I would think that is the reason for some of this. Good luck

If you just got the acceptance e-mail this morning then I would wait a bit. The scholarship e-mail usually comes a bit later, mine came the next day.

My status checker just changed today to "Decision Rendered." I haven't gotten an email, so I'm hoping that I didn't get dinged :cry: . Can anyone provide any insight?

Give it an hour or two and you'll get an email.
Hope you get some good news.

Unfortunately, this is the first time I checked (12:30 CST), so I don't know exactly how long ago it changed. Do you get an email for WL/ding?

No :( . My seat deposit hasn't changed. I guess I'll just have to be patient. I'll know by the end of the day I guess. I'm going to lunch and hope for an update.

How did you find out? Via status checker, or email? Mine still just says decion made, no seat deposit changes, no email. Time is kinda running out. I'm wondering if I got dinged. I wish they would just put it up on the status checker.

Found out via status checker. I know of at least a few schools who don't ever put seat deposit info in status checker even if you are admitted (though I'm not sure if tech is one of them). Haha, I hate it when schools just tell you "decision made/rendered" and then make you wait until it actually arrives via snail mail...it's so unnecessarily stressful!

Anyway, good luck, hope you find out soon!

edit: probably should have read a few of the above posts before bringing up seat deposit info

It's alright. It looks like I got dinged =\ Otherwise, I would have gotten something by now. I wish it just straight out told me. If it updates to accepted/WL, the absence of an update seems to be a ding.

I'll just need to wait it out. No use in whining. Tech just became my top school unexpectedly. This thread is full of really great people. I'll cross my fingers and just hope for the best. Maybe someone just forgot to update my status checker 8)

Blue wave I've noticed we're applying to a lot of the same schools. If you don't mind me asking where'd you do your undergrad and grow up

I was in the same boat till I got pulled off. Tech just seems to have a strange way of doiń things. Only way I found out was drunkenly checking the status checker deal.

What do you mean by pulled off? Taken off wait list or dinged?

Does anyone know if there is an accepted students facebook group, or anything like that? I'm pretty sure I will be going to Tech in the fall and couldn't find anything.. possibly a place to look for a roommate, etc?

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
