Current Students as an Admissions Resource

Plan II has many student volunteers who are happy to share their personal impressions of Plan II, their decision process when they chose Plan II over other schools, their classroom and dorm experiences, their “extra-curricular” experiences, etc. These email ambassadors are an important information resource for prospective applicants.

At Contact a Plan II Student, you will find a long list of students willing to answer questions about their experiences at UT, in Plan II, in the dorms, in Plan II Honors and UT Austin student organizations, etc. Each student’s double-major and/or dual-degree information (including pre-med and pre-law) is noted. Feel free to contact as many email ambassadors as you wish. Ask them questions about their experience, such as:

What do you like, or not like
* about Plan II?
* about UT?
* about the students, the faculty, the dorms, the campus, or about Austin?
* about combining this or that major and/or degree?
* How did you manage your time?
* Were you still able to include outside activities?
etc., etc., etc....

Please note: We discourage these students from giving any kind of formal/direct “advising,” because we want to be sure every Plan II student and applicant gets answers from our trained, professional admissions and advising staff.

For instructions on how to apply to Plan II, please browse through our Admission pages, which direct you to official application information. Questions about the application or about the Plan II Honors program or curriculum? Contact: Admissions
