Too late to catch up now....But 2010 is comin' fast!

sorry followers....I let the blog down. Admissions got the better of me this spring. I was just way too busy to add something new. But we had a wonderfully successful, if crazy admissions season. And, most important, we have a terrific entering freshman class of just the right size to show for it.

But, I'm turning over a new leaf and getting back on the blog-wagon for the fall 2010 applicants.

Here we go:

We are looking at some changes in the Plan II admission world for the fall 2010 applicants:

1) A new, much earlier deadline: December 15, 2009;

2) A priority application deadline of November 1, 2009. (We have discontinued the Early Consideration application option.)

3) The required electronic teacher recommendation is discontinued. Plan II will not require a recommendation letter. Recommendation letters will not be a primary component of the Plan II review process.

Applicants may have teacher submit letters to the UT Admissions office (via US mail), but letters will not be required to complete a UT or a Plan II application. It's important to note here that as soon as the required documents are complete, Plan II will move the file into the review process.

The on-line application APPLYTEXAS is expected to be live on August 1, 2009.

I encourage interested seniors to register for a Plan II information session and visit us. The reservation links and details about the sessions, visiting, dates, parking, etc. are all at VISIT PLAN II
