Hey everyone! I was just wondering if UT Austin has a priority deadline or any sort of priority admission process that helps with increasing your chances? I wanna make sure I stay on track with all the deadlines and take advantage of any possible perfks. Thanks in advance!
Hey there! Great question. UT Austin has a priority deadline that generally falls on November 1. Keep in mind that the deadlines can change each year, so it's always best to double-check the University's website for the most up-to-date information.
If you're interested in applying for scholarships and financial aid, you should also submit your FAFSA and the Texas Application for State Financial Aid (TASFA) as early as possible.
One more thing to consider is the automatic admission rule for Texas residents (also known as the top 6% rule). To be eligible for automatic admission, you need to be a Texas resident, graduate from a Texas high school in the top 6% of your class, and apply no later than the December 1st regular deadline.
Good luck with your application!
