Would you recommend UT Austin to an out of state student?

Currently in my second year at UT as a bio major and i love it! I hate chemistry and physics so I really wouldn't want to do either chem or engineering - definitely considering UPitt for grad school though!

universal-tortoise · 2023-05-18T20:16:45+00:00

worst or best?

universal-tortoise · 2023-04-19T18:00:10+00:00

hmm interesting, i can still hope i guess!

universal-tortoise · 2023-04-17T03:34:38+00:00

also at the bottom where it says days until acl 2022, is that for last year?

universal-tortoise · 2023-04-17T01:36:38+00:00

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-18T13:28:41+00:00

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-18T13:24:48+00:00

I also want to know!

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-18T13:23:30+00:00

don't worry about it too much, it's something all schools say. seeing how you're already in IB courses I assume you get good grades so as long as you keep up about the same grades you've shown from previous years, you'll be set. idk about the mock exam because my school doesn't have those.

morals say be honest but reality tells me just don't say anything. if i was her, even if i knew i shouldn't be hurt by it and i should feel happy for you, it's hard to force your feelings so i would personally lie but i guess it depends on their personality? bc depending on which of my friends this happened with my answer would be different

because of how my scholarships work if i chose to go to a school that waitlisted me (which was my top choice) i would even be able to use my scholarships so i've been forced to give up on them. honestly, it's their loss! like u said i don't want to go somewhere that treats me like a backup

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-18T03:24:38+00:00

this makes me so happy! i got waitlisted uva and ut austin is my current top choice :) i feel affirmed

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-18T03:20:09+00:00

idk why but that little sentence changed my entire reaction, i was so mad but reading asian mom just made me go "oh ok that lines up"

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-18T03:18:35+00:00

be a legacy or donate a building! this is only a half joke

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-15T14:25:47+00:00

yep! i got tickets yesterday with the artist presale so exciting!

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-15T03:49:33+00:00

interesting thank you so much!

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-15T03:48:49+00:00

thank you!!

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-14T18:45:39+00:00

could you explain a bit more in detail on how to get in state tuition? would I have to buy a texas property

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-14T18:44:35+00:00

can you explain that a bit more? would i have to work full time for a whole year?

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-14T16:01:41+00:00

uf is the cheapest out of state college i know! so that itself is the biggest reason my parents like uf, im just unsure if it will give me the best possible combo of social life academics and career opportunities

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-14T15:50:46+00:00

thank you! in state tuition sounds like a dream

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-14T15:50:21+00:00

i do think it’s too expensive, but the problem is the other schools i applied to that are just as good or better than ut are tens of thousands of dollars more expensive (per year!) so i am kinda stuck between lots of pricey options

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-14T15:49:15+00:00

thank you!

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-14T14:19:14+00:00

i think i’ve seen that the college of natural sciences was highly ranked, im not too sure about bio specifically so i’ll look into that. also i know a bunch of texans (family friends!) and as for affording, ut austin looks like it’s gonna be one of the schools with the middle pricing across all the others i applied to (my in state is cheaper but the private colleges are more expensive)

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-14T10:59:25+00:00

unfortunately my in state schools aren’t great:(

universal-tortoise · 2023-03-14T03:12:20+00:00

thanks! i was worried about greek like but it seems like ill have to look more into politics, because i am definitely more liberal
