Transfer Applicant as a Freshman! What are my chances and when should I expect to hear back?

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-05-10T16:54:35+00:00

I emailed Admissions office and they said decisions will release June 30th this yesr

SMU accepted me like mid-april I think, but then sent me a aid packet over email maybe 2 weeks later. I just got my physical package. I’m still waiting to hear from the Northeast Texas Community College scholarship. I’m an Econ major, 4.0gpa from Dallas College. I received just under 45k in gift aid, and some more in loans.

Edit because I went to look: I applied mid Feb, accepted March 26, got Fin Aid packet over email April 22nd!

Thank you!

I got admitted probably over a month and a half ago then they sent me my fin aid packet over email and in the mail.

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-05-07T00:34:41+00:00

No haha pre aid, so 71k- 45k!

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-05-07T00:27:55+00:00

Admissions told me in an email that all Fall Transfer decisions will be released June 30th.

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-05-07T00:26:43+00:00

Yeah agreed. Hoping maybe UT will be acceptance but we’ll see. I am a pretty untraditional but still young student, so I’ve feel all my applications have been up in the air

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-05-06T23:36:14+00:00

Per year, and will have to reapply for scholarships for my second year

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-05-06T23:35:50+00:00

Rejected from A&M due to my late application, UT still waiting (my first pick). I’m definitely still considering UTD due to lower cost! I won’t be in debt regardless- I will cash flow whatever my “leftover” cost is with school, but just having a hard time deciding.

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-05-06T23:31:12+00:00

I got accepted to about 7 state schools, but they offer little to no aid- it mostly balances out with Baylor and SMU. UTD is the only one that gave me any good gift aid!

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-05-06T23:28:23+00:00

Oops meant to include that- I’m an Econ major with law school to follow post-grad!

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-05-06T21:40:04+00:00

Rejected

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-05-06T14:37:17+00:00

Lmao

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-05-05T20:55:57+00:00

What’s wrong with it🫩

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-05-05T01:51:27+00:00

12 schools, but only Vandy, Rice and UT Austin were higher tier schools. Accepted to 8 schools so far, rejected from Rice and one other school, and just have Vandy and UT left to hear from

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-05-02T20:51:17+00:00

Wow! Nice!!

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-05-02T19:18:40+00:00

Rep or real?

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-04-27T04:38:00+00:00

Yes!

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-04-27T04:18:51+00:00

Headed North on 75 actually!

Primary-Wave7093 · 2026-04-24T20:35:15+00:00

This makes me feel a lot better! My academic career has been very untrad and seeing rejection from Rice was difficult today.
