IAtoTX, are you out of state (Iowa?)? Anyone else out there accepted from out of state? They don't seem to take many nonresidents so I am a bit scared about my chances.
 
I got my acceptance email today too. However, I think I will decline. I'm incredibly sad that I do not attend UT, but I've chosen Houston COP due to family. Good luck to whoever gets my spot 😍 BTW, I interviewed in March and had a very great interview.

Originally, yes, I'm from Iowa...but I've been in TX for at least 3 years now, so I'm a resident.
 
Congratulations to all of you who got in! Must be a great feeling 🙂
 
So really, is their like no one besides that1guy and Vicky from the feb. interviewees that heard back from UT?? No acceptance, no rejections, nothing?? So weird just 2 people from this forum! And now 3 more from the March round of interviewees... I wonder if the majority of seats are already filled, or will that take place after the 3rd round acceptances are sent out? 😕
 
I wonder that myself too. I haven't heard anything yet and I interviewed in March. 😕

ahhh so nice to see a post on this thread... I've been missing it 🙂 *tears of joy*

It's just too weird to me that only about 5 people have posted their UT acceptance status... I was expecting a lot more!

Well, may is almost here... Just cant wait to find out!
 
I'm hoping that only 5 people got accepted, more of a chance for the rest of us! But in reality, they'll accept around 140 and I bet they have at least half right now, and after the april interviews, they'll have 30 more, leaving 40 seats left and taking 15 or so from each interview section, Feb, March, and April, that's my opinion.

I'm still here!!! 😀 .. i just do a whole more reading than posting these days. Also, i'm starting to see myself more in Houston... and slowly getting used to the notion that I may not end up in Austin. Which is fine, my only problem with UH, is HOuston itself, but i think i can get used to the city.

May is indeed almost here, happy waiting guys... and i'm gonna give you something else to look forward to.... This May,(late may, early June, whenever austin decides to get at a chick)... Itoohaveadream will reveal her identity by posting her myspace url!!! 😱... LOL 😀 , don't mind me!, happy waiting good folks!!👍

Ditto for me, my parents really want me to go to UH (though they'll support me either way). As time goes by I am really wondering what the major differences are between the programs. I want to become a clinical pharmacist and I just wonder which path would be the best fit. Also I would really like to do my rotations in the Texas Medical Center and with UH I am certain I will be able to, yet with UT it is not so certain.

May can't get here fast enough!

Good to hear from you itoohaveadream... its been a while!

Well, I sure hope u hear good news from Austin, although, I'm the same way... getting more used to the idea of being in Houston. The saddest thing is thats where I originally wanted to go, i mean, i wasnt too sure Austin or Houston. But now, I think I'm pretty sure Austin's my #1 choice... But either way I think both would be great.

K cant wait to know your "real" name...

Good Luck again!

Hi atx_rx,

My parents, well mainly my mom & my sis, really want me to go to UT Austin... mainly cuz its closer to home (dallas) and the experience you get from going to school like "UT Austin". Houston, I think from what I've heard, doesnt give u that feel...

But both are AWESOME schools. One of my friends at Houston said, unlike Austin, Houston doesnt really help you with tutuors and such when you are not doing that well in your classes. If you fail 1 class, u r a year behind, and if u fail 2, you are kicked out of the program. She did her pre-pharm at UT, but didnt get in for pharmacy school - so shes at UH.

The prof. that interviewed me was the coordinator for internship programs. He said they assign you areas based on your preference and the area u want to go in (usually your top 2 choices). I want to do clinical pharmacy as well, and probably pediatric - oncology. For me --- he said Dallas and San Antonio would be the ones.

I dont know how hard it will be to get the area of your choice. One of my friends niece goes there, and she wanted to come to Dallas but was given Houston.

So I guess we'll just have to wait and see depending on your class --- which area will be easier to get.

My worry is the financial aid! I dont know if this delay would put me way behind for UT's financial aid...

Anyhow, just a month more maybe...
 
has anyone paid the enrollment deposit for UT? it is like $200. I was wondering if I didn't get in to the pharmacy school would i get a refund.

What enrollment deposit? I didnt have to pay anything so far.
 
Why would anyone pay an enrollment deposit before being admitted? 😕

Maybe its for UT Main? Just a guess! 😕

from what i've heard, don't they save like 20-30ish spots for just utep students? with the requirement that they have to do their rotations in the valley or in el paso. so that means no one else gets assigned to those areas.

my friend's a p2 right now and they just got their p4 year assignments. he said that only 6 people didn't get their first choice and 1 person didn't get their 2nd choice.

it's like a random computer thing but they take your preference into account.

eek! i'm trying to decide if i want dallas or austin!!

I'm curious, why Dallas over Austin?

i paid mine after i got my acceptance to the pharmacy school. i think that it would go to the 1st tuition statement.
