Fall 2015 UT Dallas Applicants?


Recommended Posts

I am waiting on one last letter of recommendation to submit by their February 15th deadline.

 

I'm in the same boat. I just submitted on Monday and have one rec letter missing. However, my application status on the Galaxy portal has already changed to "complete" ...have you found the same?

Currently my #1 school! 

 

When I log into the application portal, it says that my essay and transcripts are incomplete. But I submitted them on the application. Do I need to resubmit them?

If you haven't already, I'd check out the results page and lurk there to see when results start coming in.

A lot of people seem to post there more actively than they post on the forums, plus it's easy to see when applicants were notifed last year, but it looks like people heard back starting in late Feb.

 

But good luck! I hope you get the news you want to hear.

The same thing happened to me. Once I submitted, the essay and transcript requirements popped up as incomplete on my overview page. When I click on the "essay" requirement, it says that I've already submitted an essay. I'm thinking those just show up automatically in case people forgot to upload their essay or transcripts. As long as your Galaxy portal is saying complete, I wouldn't worry about it.

Is Galaxy Portal the application system log on or something totally different?

I would recommend calling UTDallas ensure everything arrived (if you think everything should be there).  My file was marked as complete online but when I called, it had been filed internally as "incomplete" and was not reviewed.  When they looked in the file, it was actually complete.

Yes, the Galaxy Portal is different. It's where you can track the status of your application. A few days after I submitted, I received an email titled "Thanks for applying" with instructions on how to create a Net ID. The Net ID is what you use to log into the Galaxy Portal.

I just discovered Galaxy Portal! It says my app is under review, so I guess I can breathe easier.

I heard back a few days ago! But I finished the online portion of my application in December. Good luck!!

 

I am assuming you are the one who posted on the results page that you got admitted (hope I'm not wrong about that). Congratulations! Do you happen to know the date that your file was complete with recommendations and everything? Also, did you submit a resume? I didn't see a place to upload a resume on the app.. I found it weird b/c all my other schools asked for one.

I have heard back from UT Dallas also. It said my application was completed on January 14 and I heard back January 28! I turned in my application in December and my transcript arrived Jan 14.

I am so stressed out...the registrar STILL has not found my transcripts. I understand that they are extremely busy, but it should not take 2 tries and 6 weeks.

He is a friend of a family members so he emailed me offering to talk to me about the program, but I know they do not do formal interviews.

Oh wow! I would take that as a very positive sign. :)  What a great connection to have.

Yes I am looking forward to meeting him! I cant believe some people have already heard back...rolling admissions is making me crazy! I check the portal daily :wacko:

I know! I'm checking it constantly, too. Especially since there were a few acceptances and then nothing for the past 9 days!

Hey all, so on my to-do list it says they still need my official transcript. I sent it in a few weeks back but to the dept address listed on the website... so I called and the lady said the dept forwards them to the Admission and Enrollment office, which is currently 3 weeks behind. She told me not to resend my transcript. Just a FYI, so for those having the same prob don't fret :)
