Admissions application Deadlines
Starting with 2009 applicants,* The University of Texas at Austin implemented some changes to its summer/fall deadlines for freshman admission. Here are the expected deadline shifts for the next couple of years:
Applicants to Summer/Fall 2010
» December 15, 2009
Applicants to Summer/Fall 2011
» December 1, 2010
* The summer/fall 2009 application deadline was January 15, 2009.
The deadline changes are planned to allow the Office of Admissions to make admission decisions earlier in the spring of an applicant’s senior year. The February 1 deadline, which had been in place for years, often meant that applicants had to wait for their admission decisions until late March or even April 1. Earlier decisions will mean that students are able to begin their post-admission, enrollment planning earlier.
Spring Application Deadline
No changes are planned for deadlines to the spring semester. Freshman applicants who want to enter in a spring semester should plan to complete their applications by October 1.
Spring Deadline
» October 1
All deadlines are “in-house” deadlines meaning that items need to arrive in the Office of Admissions on the deadline date. Items submitted electronically need to be submitted before midnight (central time); items submitted in paper format need to be in an admissions office/center or in the hands of an admissions representative on the deadline date.
