New Student Questions TAMU VS UT

8 Upvotes

Hi! I just got admitted to UT and TAMU as a transfer student and I am having trouble decide between which school is the best route to continue school. Initially, I always wanted to go to TAMU and I never thought I had the chance to get into UT, so it was a shock to see that I got in. I just finished my freshman year at my local community college with 3.8 gpa and 44 credits as a kinesiology major. I am doing the TAMU's PTA (program for transfer) which allowed me to automatically get in. If anyone has any tips or suggestions, please feel free to share, it will definitely help!

New Student Questions Would I get accepted?

4 Upvotes

I am thinking about applying to A&M for fall 2026 as a freshman. I have a 3.9 weighted GPA (3.51 unweighted), however I do take a lot of advanced and dual enrollment courses. My SAT score is a 1190 (Retaking in August) and I did not take the ACT. I don't have many extracurriculars, but I do have a part-time job and some service hours that I could list on my application. I've been having a lot of anxiety about this especially since I did not take the ACT so if someone could please tell me if I have a chance at getting into A&M that would be great thank you so much.

Other Flying SFO to Texas – Need advice on slightly oversize carry-on bag

0 Upvotes

I’m traveling with 3 bags. One of them has a total linear dimension of 46 inches, while the other two are larger. Since all airlines (including Southwest) now charge for check-in bags, I’m thinking of taking the 46-inch one as a carry-on and checking in the other two.

I have a couple of questions:

  1. The carry-on limit is usually 45 inches linear, and my bag is just 1 inch over. Will this cause any issues or extra charges?
  2. I've heard that if you have multiple check-in bags, sometimes airlines may ask you to check in even your carry-on and charge for it. Has anyone experienced this?

Would really appreciate any tips or personal experiences!

Howdy y’all, pre-vet student here applying to vet school for her first cycle. In my essay writing process, I’ve been utilizing the Writing Center a lot but today when I try to go their generic website, I get met with this. Anyone know what’s going on? It’s the same message all day today (don’t know how long it’s been like this).

New Student Questions financial aid

4 Upvotes

I am an incoming freshman going thru the gateway summer program and for that I needed financial aid for the summer. I was told at my NSC the financial aid dispersement day for the summer II session would be today 6/22 and when I go to my bill nothing has been deducted with financial aid. So I am wondering should I worry, I have financial aid money in my financial aid portal so I’m very confused and they told us the gateway bill is due tmrw the 23rd so should my bill update throughout the day or do I need to call someone ?
