[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UT is basically impossible to get in from out of state in the most competitive majors unless you have MIT like stats.[/quote]

UT in fact is the most friendly to high stats nerds.  They often get rejected by MIt, UCs, CMU, ivies, sometimes by all of them; then only to find UT Austin has the mercy to accept the nerds.  Don’t forget to apply to UT if you have one at home.  You will be grateful.[/quote]

My son was accepted to UC Berkeley, Wharton and Cornell and was rejected by UT. (Business). We are in florida. 1580 SAT, 36 ACT, 99/100 GPA.[/quote]

Yes, I have one as well-accepted to Cornell, Michigan, UNC, UVA, UCLA, Northwestern and Yale. waitlisted to another 4 Ivies this year. 
Rejected outright to UT Austin.[/quote]

I should add the only other rejection was Stanford. Non-STEM. [/quote]

Darn…my kid got accepted out of state. Chose another school. They are very heavily in-state. We visited - it was ok. [/quote]
