uebersetzen Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 I guess this is sort of an impossible question, but I've noticed people here recommending applying early to schools that have rolling admissions -- UT Dallas in particular. It's making me nervous because I planned to apply to UTD in mid-August (September 15 deadline). Is this what people mean by "early" or not so much? I am taking a class and would like to include that transcript in my application, and I also have one letter of rec that definitely won't be submitted until August. Any thoughts?

uebersetzen Posted July 23, 2015 Author Share Posted July 23, 2015 (edited) They're in my signature but if you're on mobile I think you can't see them? As follows: Out-of-field applicant (my BA is in English and German) Graduated with a 3.5 GRE: 161 verbal + 151 quant Spent 2 years as an English teaching assistant through Fulbright. Now I work with kids with developmental disabilities. I'm applying to UTD and college of st rose for this spring, and if I don't get in I'll just keep plugging along on the prerequisites and working! How about you? Are you applying anywhere else? Edited July 24, 2015 by uebersetzen Maiko 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lsugirl Posted July 31, 2015 Share Posted July 31, 2015 I've already applied for Spring 2016 but also curious about this "Rolling Admissions" does anyone know if the earlier you apply the better? Anxiously waiting.... best of luck to everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uebersetzen Posted August 1, 2015 Author Share Posted August 1, 2015 Good luck, lsugirl! I'm hoping to submit everything next week but still waiting on recommendations to be submitted. When did you apply? I'm interested to hear how long it takes to hear a decision. I've heard of UTD being kinda slow on the notifications Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

statsLOWpassionHIGH Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I also am very interested in UT Dallas for the spring 2016 but am very concerned with how competitive it may be. Do they ask for a GRE score? What are "rolling admissions"? Does any one have a contact that would help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uebersetzen Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 Rolling admissions just means that they consider applications as they come in, rather than after a certain deadline. Theoretically, I guess. So theoretically, it would be better to apply earlier because they could have filled almost all the spots by the deadline of September 15. I just submitted everything to UTD today (though still waiting on letters of rec......), and I am visiting next week! So fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr479 Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Hey, uebersetzen, ich dachte, das hier würde dich vielleicht interessieren. :-) http://jshd.pubs.asha.org/article.aspx?articleid=1742840&resultClick=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr479 Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Entschuldige. Du musst dich anmelden, um das lesen zu können. Aber es lohnt sich, wenn du dein CCCs beantragst. Dann bekommst du eine Ermässigung, wenn du als Student schon bei ASHA angemeldet bist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uebersetzen Posted August 19, 2015 Author Share Posted August 19, 2015 I met with Dr Stillman this morning and he said they're hoping to make decisions for spring 2016 in mid September, just so everyone who has applied is aware! He was very kind and seemed very approachable and understanding of the stress of finding a good fit for grad school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsugirl Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 @uebersetzen what does your online portal say? I check mine literally everyday... :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uebersetzen Posted August 21, 2015 Author Share Posted August 21, 2015 @lsugirl all it says is that my application is complete (I think). Is that what yours says?I believe I am STILL waiting on a couple of letters from professors... I should probably check in on that. But, like I said, Dr Stillman told me he would be making decisions in mid september, then finalizing everything in the beginning of october! Which in my opinion makes the whole process not realllly rolling admissions, haha. But thats mostly a bummer for people like you who applied so early!! Shoot!

uebersetzen Posted September 24, 2015 Author Share Posted September 24, 2015 @lsugirl I actually for the life of me cannot remember my NetID.... lol. So I haven't checked it in a while! Do you think they'll email/call or will notifications be via Galaxy? My letters didn't get submitted until right before September 15 so I assumed I wouldn't hear anything until at least October.
