I applied to the University of Tampa and I'm super eager to find out when I'll hear back from them. I know I've got a bit more waiting ahead, but I'm trying to calm my nerves by getting some info about when decisions usually come out. Does UT have specific dates posted, or is it more of a rolling admissions process? Thanks for any info you can share!
The University of Tampa follows a rolling admissions process. This means they review and make decisions on applications as they receive them, rather than waiting for a specific deadline.
Once you submit your application, it typically takes 2-4 weeks for the admissions office to make a decision, though this can vary a bit depending on when you applied and the number of applications they are processing. So, if you've recently submitted your application, you can likely expect to hear back within a month or so.
Once a decision has been made, the university will notify you by mail, so make sure to be checking for any mail from UT. Many students like to keep track of when they sent in their application and then mark the four-week point on a calendar to have a general idea of when they might hear back.
Keep in mind that the most important thing is to give the admissions office the time they need to thoroughly review your application. It's definitely an anxious wait, but remember that every student goes through it. As long as you submitted everything on time, there's nothing more you can do at this point except be patient. Good luck!
