Disheartening budgetary news from UTexas

Recommended Posts

Just poking around the UTexas website to check (well...re-re-check) when they'd be sending out admissions decisions.

Looks like they've amended their FAQ page to reflect the dire financial situation at the school:

"How competitive is your program? How many students get in each year?

For the past three years our application rate has been around 300 with an enrollment rate of about eight percent of applicants. In fall 2010 we will enroll only eight students due to budgetary constrictions."

Certainly doesn't bode well for us applicants. Does anyone have any idea the size of classes/cohorts schools are planning to fund this year? I imagine the news is similarly bleak elsewhere...

Sorry to say that the decisions have already been made and those offered admissions already informed.
