UTA Fall 2021

Spaceandtime · Mar 3, 2021

@dallasdogmom and @Alycia thank you for the clarification. It is a small number, but it is also a pilot program. They have never had an accelerated 15 month on campus program so it makes sense that it would be small, plus there may be some Covid restrictions. I would be devastated, I am already worried enough about the priority ranking competition alone. And of course am counting down the day's until Friday.

Everyone thinks UTA will let us know tomorrow evening. The Summer cohort was notified late Monday evening. We aren’t sure if the storms have delayed the responses, but since Summer was notified on time, personally, I think the rest of us will be notified on time as well. But we shall see!

I’m a mess this week!! I’ve been trying to not spend every second hitting refresh on my email....but I’m not successful.

Good luck!!

I called as soon as storm was over and they said they have their heart set on 3/5 and are all committed to sending out notifications tomorrow. So at least that's a relief, unfortunately the stress and anxiety are starting to heighten. I just wish we knew how many applicants they had in total so at least mathematically I knew what the odds were.

Thank yall so much for the help/updates. I wish I could get an idea of numbers of applicants too! It may make me freak out more but ease my anxiety at the same time (if that makes sense). I wish they didn't wait until the last day in the week. ?

I am glad in a small way that notifications are going to go out the day before Spring break. I'm a teacher and it will be good for me to have a week off to be depressed and sulk if I receive a denial. A waitlist email would be bittersweet because you aren't a definite no, but you aren't accepted yet so you can't make any definite plans. So while you still have a chance, you are suspended in worry for months. I just keep reminding myself, I will just reapply again until I am accepted.

@Sara.T Congrats! I did, too! Have you found any info/pages for the cohort?

I don’t believe they ever actually send out denials. You’re either accepted or waitlisted. And I think the first round of applicants that are on the waitlist will be accepted within a couple weeks when some of the accepted are unable to produce proof of immunizations.
