'Tis the Season....

We are burrowing through piles of applications as fast as we can.

Folks who applied by November 1 should know that their application will be reviewed before other applicants', but an early review doesn't guarantee early notification. We do want to notify applicants of their Plan II admission status as soon as possible however. We don't like keeping people waiting any more than you want to wait. :-)

The good news/bad news is that we are seeing a lot of really wonderful applications. Of course, we are thrilled to see them and humbled that so many talented, bright and exciting individuals chose to apply to Plan II. The bad news is that it makes our jobs harder since we simply cannot admit all the great applicants.

We will send at least one more bunch of admission offers before the UT Winter Break and will keep reviewing files and notifying applicant throughout January and February.

Best of luck to all.

Notification and Timing

Early submission of application documents does not necessarily guarantee an early response. Plan II will review applications, in the order that the applications are completed. However some applications will be "held" until the full applicant pool is under review.

All Plan II Honors applicants will receive notification in writing, via the US mail, regardless of the admission decision. We will not discuss admission decisions on the phone, except in cases where the applicant is out of the country and the timing of mail delivery is unpredictable.

We expect to notify all applicants by February 20, 2011, but many applicants will hear much early. In any case, all Plan II admission decisions will be complete by March 15, 2011.
