I called this morning and they said it'll take them about a week or two to send acceptance calls.
I just called them and they said they will start sending out offers TOMORROW!!! Be positive guys!!! Goodluck!!!! :happy::)
 
Really?! I called student affairs. It's weird how they're giving different answers but the earlier the better!

I called the College of Pharmacy. I'm not sure if it's the same office you called but I hope we'll hear from them tomorrow.
 
I just got an email from A&M saying I was accepted! Funny they didn't call me first... but oh well. I'm happy! Haha :)
 
Wait really? Are you joking?
No, I'm not joking! I thought they told us they would call us, but I guess not. Here's what the email I got said:

Good luck to everyone else!

If anyone was wondering about my stats, I interviewed Jan. 23rd, 3.86 GPA , 95 composite PCAT, ~100 hours volunteering at a hospital, licensed pharm tech (haven't worked as a tech though), member of pre-health org for 3 years, about to complete bachelor's degree this semester. Interview went great.

That's great! Are you planning on accepting the offer?
 
I'm waiting to hear back from other schools first. If I get in to UT, I will likely decline.
Congrats on your acceptance! I literally just checked my email after reading your post and there it was, an acceptance letter sitting in my inbox!

Members don't see this ad :)
Same here also got an acceptance letter too! Didn't a phone call either.
 
Got accepted also though I was assigned to Kingsville and not my first option of college station, oh well I guess it would be better to have the 2nd and 3rd year students close by.

I just keep refreshing my e-mail ugh:((

If somebody that was assigned the college station campus declines, I'm sure they'll bump you up for that spot :)
 
I interviewed February 6 and I was accepted. I was there at the 10:30 time slot.
 
Will they be sending out more acceptances tomorrow?
 
Congratulations to those who got accepted!! Usually they send out acceptance emails to the top candidates and then once those people start rejecting their offers then they would make calls. Calls will go out as far as even a couple of weeks before school starts as long as people continue to reject their offer and seats need to be filled.

I hope that's how it works, I wouldn't mind going to Kingsville, It's just that I'm from Dallas area so College station is much closer to friends and family.
 
I got accepted as well to Kingsville eventhough I preferred College Station so I can stay close to home but Kingsville is actually a better choice. I'm happy that I got accepted to Kingsville.
 
I was accepted today for the College Station campus, which is cool, though now I'm not sure if that's a good idea....I kinda don't like the idea of being a guinea pig

Me too… I first wanted to go to College station since it is closer to home but after the interview I kinda regretted my decision on choosing Collage station. The reason is because it is more like distance education for those students in College station. they will broadcast live lectures from Kingsville :(
 
When I was at my interview I check marked that I'd only go there if I was admitted to go to college station...not sure why I did that, just heat of the moment. Though honestly I'm crossing my fingers that UT sends me an invitation and if not, I've already accepted Houston and might just continue with that.

Great!!! :D best of luck with UT.

btw, I like your name "Kenshin0011" lol I'm a Kenshin fan too :)
 
thanks everyone for your responses and congrats. I was just hoping that they were still sending out acceptance e-mails but I guess not. there's always next year I guess. and congrats to everyone again.

Haha, thanks! I've used it for every site with usernames since...well since I started using the internet in late middle school lol. I actually just bought the series on DVD from ebay to show to my gf, haven't seen it since high school.

I doubt that they are done sending invites, plus there will be more sent when people decline. Don't give up all hope
 
When giving points, do they look at overall GPA or science/math GPA? Anyone know?
 
I didn't get anything *phantom crying* ... I hope I hear back from them. This is my first choice. But congrats to everyone else!
 
Well, I wonder if they sent out all acceptances?
 
I interviewed on Feb 6th and found the email in my spam around 9pm today (it was sent out around 3:30). IT WAS AN ACCEPTANCE!!!!!!! I'm 90% sure I will accept the offer. If anyone is looking for a male roomate let me know!

If I decide on T-AM then I'm interested especially if we could find like 3-4 people, it would really keep costs down, maybe even carpool.
 
Got my email today. Anyone has an idea of cost of tuition for a semester?
