texas_teacher Posted January 25, 2017 Posted January 25, 2017 Hi friends! I'm anxiously awaiting a decision from UT-Austin. I applied to their PhD program for Language and Literacy Studies in C&I. Anyone else in the same boat/has anyone heard anything? Thanks!
MTAdventuress Posted January 27, 2017 Posted January 27, 2017 I am in the same boat, too! I haven't heard anything yet, but keep obnoxiously refreshing my e-mail and checking on the results page. Have you heard anything about their funding options?
texas_teacher Posted January 28, 2017 Author Posted January 28, 2017 I actually went to UT for my undergrad, one of my references is a professor in the department. I'm not sure about the LT program (I'm assuming you applied for that, based on your info?) I know that initially, decisions were supposed to roll out in early February, according to a coordinator I spoke with! But I'm unsure. Best of luck - let me know if you hear something!!!
MTAdventuress Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 @texas_teacher I just wanted to let you know I just received an e-mail from UT Austin, because I had been checking it non-stop. Hoping you've gotten one or are receiving one soon!

I think I got in? It says I was recommended for Admission and my status is pending approval from the Office of Graduate Studies. Then it went on to talk about a welcome weekend and asking if I wanted to accept the offer of admission. My status changed in the portal to Admitted :-/ So I'm not sure if it's official or just almost official? It's just great to hear back. AND that their welcome weekend isn't the same weekend in February as every other school I applied to I hope you hear soon!

I hope so too! I think you're good!
MTAdventuress Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 @texas_teacher The e-mail said it would be Monday, March 6th. If I get any follow up information this week, I will post it in here, too
