[Current UT-Austin student - questions?]

I'm not sure I understand your question. 

I meant in the process of applying, does it help that you email to one of the faculty members which one have common AOI with you, and s/he probably could be in favour of you in admission committee?

is it important to email (or phone) to some of professors and persuade them to help you getting admission? is that work at all?

i mean specifically in philosophy and in austin, because as i know its important for applied science majors
