Do you know if your status changed prior to getting an II? Mine has "interview scheduling" but no status...

I honestly can't remember. I don't think it did. It remained "no status" for awhile.

I know the button marked "Applicant Status" went missing prior to getting an II though.
 
I'll take that as a sign of good news then! My "Applicant Status" disappeared last week. Same thing happened with my El Paso app and ended up with an II. Can only hope the same thing will happen for Lubbock!

I think this was discussed earlier in either this thread or the El Paso thread. I don't think the El Paso section ever had an "applicant status" button (at least, I never saw one). And from what a few others posted around here, it seems like everyone's "applicant status" button under the Lubbock section disappeared recently, including people who had already interviewed. Not 100% sure on this, but that's just what I noticed.

Ya from reading other applicants posts, there seems to be no correlation. I wonder why they removed the button.
 
Try not to analyze everything. You will cause yourself undue stress. The interviews will come....

If you can refrain from checking statuses too often, you will be happier! (I know it's hard.)
 
Found out I got accepted today! Early Decision. Good luck to everyone. I understand the waiting! If you have any questions I would be happy to answer them!

so that means they will still interview OOS after that date?

AFAIK there's no relationship between OOS acceptances going out and stopping OOS interviews. I think that OOS interviews last the whole season.

I have heard that the admissions office tries to schedule more OOS interviews at the start of the season though since they can release acceptances earlier for OOS than IS
 
What percent of applicants that can be accepted starting Oct. 15 do get accepted? If you don't get accepted on Oct. 15, how much lower (if so) are your chances at this school?

I'm not sure on the percentages but I know OOS students here who were accepted on the first day and some who were accepted in June, so there's always a chance. It likely varies by the year though as it is such a small pool to begin with
Hi sector9,

I mean what is the available dates for those OOS who recently receive an II?

Oh I see. I don't know the answer to that, sorry. Maybe someone who recently got an II can answer that

Just interviewed here this past Friday. Seems like a very supportive environment. Interviewers were very nice.
 
If I'm understanding this right, pre-match is only for in-state applicants right? If the school shows up, does it imply that they have already accepted you?
 
Does anyone know how many acceptance offers Tech extended to their interviewees out of how many total interview invites last year?
 
Received II second week of September for this afternoon's session. To the post above, this afternoon it was mentioned that they offers were extended to 65-70% of interviewees last season.

Thanks for the information. Pretty good chances then
 
It was around this time last year I got my II from Tech. Thinking of y'all and sending good vibes your way.

And, if you are looking for a school where you will have plenty of classmates to resent or gun down, don't come here. You'd be an oddball 🙂

👍 some of us are still looking for a little love from Lubbock :naughty:. Interviewed at El Paso a few weeks ago but not a sound from Lubbock.
 
What? In state acceptance?
