To those who didn’t make it into UT for Undergrad I want you to know it’s ok. When I was a senior in high school my dream was to go to UT and enter into their Architecture program, when I was capped I was faced with the dilemma of trying to do the cap program knowing I would probably never make it into the architecture program or go to another school. I decided that being an architect was more important to me then being a UT alum so I went and got my BS in Architecture at Texas Tech University. My first semester of undergrad I was determined to try to transfer but as I made friends and had an amazing time at Tech I realized that I was at the right school for me. Now a recent graduate of Tech, I’ve just been accepted into the Master of Architecture program at UT. Everything happens for a reason. Don’t let this one minor bump in the road deter you from doing what you want to do.
How is tech for computer engineering I’m having the exact same problem now and idk if I should go to tech or go to utd for a year and try to transfer into their engineering school
@@matthewgreer7350 Tech has a pretty good engineering program, when I was a freshman I had double majored in Architecture and Civil Engineering (one of the hardest things I’ve done lol) and the engineering department seemed great. Also something to note is that doing the CAP program will not automatically ensure you transfer into your major, that means when you finish your first year you’ll get accepted into the liberal arts program at UT and you’ll have to try to transfer to engineering. From what I heard it’s extremely difficult to transfer into the engineering program at UT. What you’re really going to have to ask yourself is going to UT more important then majoring in computer engineering.
Don't know why this got into my recommendation but never lose your hopes. I got capped, then my appeal got rejected but in the april suddenly they changed their minds and accepted me. I heard they fucked up their CNS and Engineering admission last year but still never lose your hopes. Good luck to everyone.
would you loose a cap offer if you applied and got rejected? And do you have any tips for the appeal?
@@jairam4666 you normally apply to UT austin first then get accepted or capped (basically rejected) or rejected. So I'm not sure what you mean by losing a cap offer there. If you are talking about losing a cap offer after your appeal rejection, then it's no. Your cap offer should still be there no worries. For appeal, I included stuff like not being in auto admit by few steps and wrote about like I still tried in my senior yr and got into top 5%. But I'm not sure if it was my appeal that got me in or they just fucked it up in the first place. I'm pretty sure its ladder, so not sure how helpful my advise on appeal would be.
This was a very very informative video!! I'm a senior who (although I totally expected to get into UT - early college cred AND just barely outside of top 6%, AND strong extracurriculars) got rejected and offered CAP. But, I was going for a STEM major and cap just isn't it. I thought about appeals and that's a lot of why I came here but it looks like it's better to just go for a second or third choice college like you were saying. Thank you very much for this video, it has helped me look at college admission more knowledgeably!
Where you going to go
@@applebirds1nthefuture646 I'm not totally sure yet, but I applied to Baylor and am applying to UT Dallas.
@@auroratheawake8981 what did you end up doing?
@@chuckgarcia5054 I actually ended up in a different direction than any of the above! I now attend Texas A&M Central Texas, major in Biology, and am pretty happy with my decision overall. At the time of my original comment, I never expected I'd be here now!
I got capped today :”)
me too brother, good luck to us both :)
me too
Same :,)
Me too

I'm an out-of-state student and I got accepted to petroleum engineering for the class of '25. Still waiting on my status for engineering honors. Fingers crossed!
Edit: The Cockrell Department of Engineering gave me a $32,000 per year scholarship, for up to four years, along with admission to the Engineering Honors program. So excited about the future!!!
As a UT PE alumni, I would strongly advise considering another major. The PE program is one of if not the best in the country, but the oil/gas industry is consolidating and shrinking. There will always be a demand for oil/gas but I think we will see demand stagnate with green initiatives and electric vehicles. You can get into the oil/gas industry without a PE degree, but getting out of the industry with a PE degree can be much more difficult. Just something to consider.
@@loganstuddert9424 Thank you for your input! How difficult is it to switch into a different engineering field within Cockrell? I am still thinking about my options but if I could switch majors my sophomore year, it may be within the realm of possibility.
@@matthewgurning7335 I don’t think it’s too difficult once you are in to Cockrell. As long as you keep your grades up. Just try not to wait until your junior year. At that point you will be taking a lot of courses specific to PE. If the oil/gas industry really interests you, you could do mechanical and then try and get an internship with an oil/gas company. That would make it a lot easier to get full time employment in the industry if it’s something that still interests you when you graduate.
if you got capped for a stem/business major, i suggest just applying to UTD/ UTA/ UNT. these are good schools and it’s good to just do 4 years there
I agree with UTD; unsure about UTA. My daughter thinks UNT is just awful and won’t even consider it. I’m not originally from Texas, so I have no idea 🤷🏻♀️
@@katdunleavey ig it’s fine to what y want to major in + financial aid + location.
‼️Dec ‘21 Update at bottom‼️
:/
After a long day at work, I got capped from the economics major
After getting a 34 ACT, a top 7% class ranking, writing my very best essays, and doing multiple extracurriculars, I got capped
I can’t move out of Austin because of a family situation so I might have to decline and go to acc and try to transfer
Any input anyone?
Update:
Worked hard at ACC and got accepted to my major for Spring 2022 transfer at UT
:))
try to appeal
It wouldn’t harm you to try and appeal :)
same thing is happening to me, i’m honestly gonna go to acc, might as well save some money especially with everything happening rn, it’s not the end of the world :) wish u the best
Same here, applied to Econ and got CAPped. 32 ACT, felt pretty good about my ECAs, though lukewarm about essays. Don't get dejected; plenty of schools will take you. Don't give up:)
Appeal and or get a 4.0 at ACC
Woah, I did not know this many qualified people got capped. I had a 3.8 GPA but I am barely in top 10% at my school. I literally wrote my essay in 3 hours and submitted my application a couple days before regular decision deadline. I got accepted into Health and Society for Liberal Arts, and I’m want to be on the premed or dental track! Wishing luck for yall!!!
Keep up the great videos! Always been a great help. Hoping for the best as I just submitted my Fall 2021 transfer application.
the clouds over there look really awesome
where is he?
looks like hes chillin in new zealand
chillin and swimming with dolphins for real
i applied priority and my friend who didn’t got her decision before me. it’s so unfair. also i got capped :(
I’m graduating this semester in COFA so this was recommended to me a little late lol but good luck everybody, don’t worry too much if you don’t get in, UT is a great school but it has issues too, and everything will work out in the end :)
i saw this on my recommended page earlier today... and just got CAPed hahahah 😎
are u going to do Cap
I applied for chemistry honors and I got capped today 4+ GPA 31 ACT 😢 hey man do you think I have a good chance for appealing for chemistry or biochemistry
I applied to college of Fine Arts and was deferred to March 1st deadline. Is there anything I should do, as far as sending additional information, mid year grades, etc...?
I got CAPped, I know that automatic admission to UT Austin only for liberal arts, but do I have a chance to get into college of natural sciences if my gpa is like over 3.8 at another UT for the freshman year then transfer to UT Austin with CAP?
I have the same exact question.
My understanding is that you can apply to other Colleges, ideally once you're admitted to UT Austin after CAP. You'll be competing with other students applying to those Colleges from other schools. If your GPA and other factors are great, you'll be competitive. Otherwise your chances are lower to minimal. Doing really well at CAP, getting into COLA, doing well there and then applying for another major seems to give you a good chance, but not a guarantee.
@@pacoromero2542 Yeah it’s really difficult to change majors at UT as is. As far as moving from cap to another school, if it’s competitive like business to it chances are almost nonexistent. If it’s less competitive it’s plausible.
Hi! I got to UT. It really depends on the major you are applying for in CNS. CS is the most competitive major for transfers. The higher your GPA the more competitive your application comes. Of course, if you are also involved in extracurriculars this adds a bonus.
Hi I was a CAP student! Like previous ppl have mentioned, it rlly depends on the major. If you participate in CAP, your GPA doesn’t transfer over once you start at UT. That being said, many majors in the CNS require a minimum of a B in introductory science courses to be considered, and some prefer certain courses being taken at UT vs transferring the credit over (I think Calculus 2 was one of those courses that was preferred to be taken in-residence). Keep in mind, you need to complete a minimum of 12hrs (1 semester) at UT to even apply for another major, so what they’ll look at is your GPA once start at UT. Search up “UT [intended major] internal transfer” and you’ll find the requirements. Hope that helps, good luck!
got capped gang :'))
A student just got a message from UT that they are still reviewing the application? Response will be until March 1st. Is this a no?
There is a smaller wave of decisions then I think... I got capped which is unfortunate but is what it is. Can also report business honors released some 2 days ago as well...
@@brennanhart8145 He just got accepted to Fine Arts. For Fine Arts the big factor was the recommendations.
Hi, please advise if UT CAP Program is worth it? I got offered CAP and I am wondering if CAP is worth it or should I look into other schools? Thanks
I’ve heard it’s more worth it if you’re pursuing a degree in their liberal arts program. Otherwise probably not worth it as only 1/3 of people who go through with program see it till admission into UT. However if it’s your number one school and you can’t see yourself going anywhere else you should go for it! But honestly the easier route would be community college and then apply as a transfer. Whatever route you take I bid you good luck!
It was worth it for me, but I'm not sure about your situation
@@dubbrooks Does CAP with an end goal of Econ sound plausible? It’s probably the second most competitive liberal arts degree but it’s liberal arts nonetheless...
@@brennanhart8145 Yes but keep in mind that even tho Econ is part of liberal arts, it isn't under the guaranteed admission list of liberal arts majors.
@@Gabriela-jg1bd thank you.
I applied to the School of Architecture and got deferred March 1st, does this mean they considered me but decided not to reject me, and instead put me in another stack? Meaning my chances could be slightly higher? Not really sure how that works.
Omg same !! and i did priority too so im confused as well :((
Same :(((
Nothing to worry about I also applied to UTSOA as well and I’ve heard from those who are studying at SOA right now also got their decision late February early March in previous years even though they did priority deadline.
Also If I do CAP agreement early for UTSA, can I withdraw my spot if my second choice university accepts me? I'm just afraid I will not have a spot at UTSA due to its enrollment limit if I wait for the decision of my second choice university and end up getting a denial.
i read online that you can agree to attend UTSA on february 12th but it is a non binding agreement and you can get out of it
@@rileympatrick do you happen to know what website says this? I’ve been looking and I could only find a small Reddit thread
@@twinscrossing968 they send you the sites information in the email also you can look it up on UT website labeled cap program
I got capped 💀💀
Do you know anything about the timeline for graduate school admissions?
I have a couple questions:
Is it true that some auto-admission students got capped?
If I was not auto admit at the time of application, but now I am, is that enough to at least be given admission to UT outside of my major?
I got capped but want to major in nursing...should I take the offer? Or just go to a different TX school for nursing?
if I don't get decision from ut austin by march 1st, am I rejected? By the way, I'm international applicant
deadlines for application in texas??@UT Admissions Guy
With the 2021-2022 CAP program, I have been offered to go to one of these schools: UTA, UTSA which one is better for CAP. I was also offered UT Tyler and I think UT El Paso, but please advise about UTA or UTSA. Thank you
LOL I feel bad now bc I got capped but I literally didn’t try on my application, wrote it in 30 minutes and only did 2/3 essays 😬
I applied for Aerospace and computer engineering both got rejected and they selected me Educations. I was top 6 % in My high school. I have done app and onram classes about 1 and half years of credit on engineering .
Do u think bc of these they rejected me ?
Will the courses of the UT Law School in Fall 2021 be taught online or in-person?
I got capped a couple weeks ago. I already have about 25 Dual Credits, but I know those won't count towards the 30 required for CAP. So in other words, if I were to go through with the CAP program, I'll be going to UT as a Junior. Most likely in the Liberal Arts School. Just wanted to ask the opinions of others. Deadlines are getting close and I need to decide where I'm going soon. THANKS!
I just graduated from UT a month ago, wonder why this gets in my recommendation.
I've been looking none stop for stats about the undergraduate philosophy major but i can't find anything
Hello! Great video. I applied to the architecture school and am out of state. I just got a notification about my application and got deferred. What do you think my odds are of getting it after being deferred? Do you think they just need more time reviewing my arch supplemental? Thanks!
I think all Architecture applicants were deferred
Hi I'm planning to join next year 2022 during spring
Can you pls help me as to when do I start preparing and submit the application
Pls help me out
Got capped! So if I wanted to major in Biology as pre-med probably not a good option. Also if I am a Early College High School student with 4.0 GPA and will have an associates degree with dual credit Cap isn't a good fit? Or is it?
Not a good fit. I was in the same boat as you, but thankfully I got in. Although, I came to the conclusion I would have rather gone to another university instead of go through the CAP path, as you have too many hours as is. Moreover, to graduate from UT Austin you need at least two years of course work there, which you would not be able to obtain do to your amount of college hours.
@@kbklefisch2 How did you get in? What school did you get into?
@@JPEBeard I don’t really know how to answer that, I just applied early decision and got in. I’m going to the College of Natural Sciences.
Can you make a video where you explain what exactly being “capped” means? I’m a first gen and I unfortunately didn’t get accepted, I got capped. It all just doesn’t really make sense to me. Please and thank you in advance!
it basically means that in order to gain automatic admission to their college of liberal arts, you will have to spend a year doing certain courses in participating universities (which are listed on their site as ut arlington, permian basin, rio grande valley, san antonio, and tyler) to meet CAP requirements. however, the main catch to this is that if you are aiming for some of their most competitive majors, such as business and cs, you have to reapply like everyone else during your sophomore year in college. if you are set on attending ut and aim to be in the liberal arts, cap is a good option; however, it’s pretty risky if you’re only looking to major in their coveted majors.
Hope you're enjoying NZ mate :)
If i got CAPed, should I appeal and show interest in PACE? Is it possible to be offered PACE even if i was offered CAP first?
Yes, tons of PACErs get PACE from appealing. I somehow got PACE right away but only like 5/100 of us were like that, the rest were from appeals!
@@annesleypulse9228 do you know that if i appeal for PACE but get rejected, will I still be able to do CAP as originally planned or will they take that away from me too since I tried appealing?
@@map5948 I’m pretty sure appealing wont change your cap option. The worst they would say is no and you’d still have CAP, but I’m not positive.
@@annesleypulse9228 ok thanks :)!
@@annesleypulse9228 Really? Is it easy to appeal because I heard its not a good idea if I don't have any new things to add to my application
When will UT Austin release Transfer Decisions??
who knows 😢 they say by june 1st on UT's website but im really hoping it's not that long of a wait.
Hey guys I see alot of people are getting Capped. Did you guys get capped from regular acceptance or because you guys were applying to the honors program?
No we got capped from regular acceptance :)
:(***
eyyy, CAP gang rise
Currently waiting to get my external transfer decision to school of information and I'm seeing so many freshmen get CAP 😳 I'm in state and spent 1.5 years at four year university in UX design program, 3.86 GPA, at community college this semester, had more extracurriculars in high school than I do in college. I wasn't proud of my essays, but hey, what the heck 😂
I received my decision for business honors today
Is business honors important? I got into business school but didn’t know I had to fill extra requirements so I didn’t get in.
Can you do a video for students who are planning to transfer for fall 2021? I’m working on my application right now and it’s due March 1st and I want constructive pointers and advice
texadmissions.com/transferguide
It looks like you've gone Native, dude !!
Is the CAP agreement binding?
No. If you complete your first yr at a UT System school w a 3.2+ GPA, then you’re given the option to go through with your CAP agreement or not.
Wtf why do they go so fast??? I was gonna do UTSA but now im scared
I’m applying to transfer this fall as an international student. What are my odds?
did you make it?
Has ut started releasing the natural sciences honors decisions yet?
I got a message in mystatus saying that they will release cns honors decisions by March 1
How much does being a legacy affect admission if parent hasn’t donated money in past or have connections?
It is still going to be an advantage over other but not by a huge margin. Just depends on your other stats, extracurriculars and definitely on being a top 6% student.
No it isn't. Legacy isn't considered at all in UT admissions nor is there even a place on the application to report any family connections.
@@UTAdmissionsGuy, thank you
That’s a beautiful background lol
Is it normal to receive a business honors interview but then be denied from UT Austin as a whole?
No if u got the interview it pretty much means you’re in
i’ve seen it happen to people :(
So every in-state applicant who gets rejected gets offered CAP? Or, are some people just flat out rejected? Seems like everyone got a CAP offer.
I’m from Minnesota and I got rejected:/
I’m from Minnesota and I got rejected :/
I’m a senior at UT about to graduate. I wonder why this showed up in my recommendation.
same haha
The "holistic" admissions process is garbage.
I prefer the term bullshit, holistic review is bullshit, but garbage works well also.
I’ve been Capped
I got capped
Got in OOS! hook em
Same!!
I'm Single 😍😥
