Ask Joffee and Texas. They get a girl in that we can't at A&M? It's a little sus


School wouldn't admit her due to TOEFL issues

She should have the same TOEFL issues over there too.

They have different requirements and offer classes we don't.

That's at least what my thought process is. How did they get her admitted?

Quote:

International applicants must submit either an official Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) or International English Language Testing System (IELTS) score report demonstrating an adequate knowledge of English. The TOEFL iBT is preferred over the IELTS. We cannot accept institutional TOEFL (ITP) scores, TOEFL Essentials scores, Duolingo scores or IELTS General Training scores.

International applicants are exempt from this requirement if they:

Are from a qualifying country, or
Graduate from a high school in the United States or a qualifying country after completing at least three years of study.
Minimum scores acceptable for admission are:
TOEFL: 79 (internet-based test)
IELTS: An overall band of 6.5 on the Academic Examination


We're 1 point higher on the TOEFL, but a lower IELTS score and 3 more pathways. The only thing I can think of is they said she had some sort of learning disability which would lower/waive it.

Texas A&M offered classes years back which basically got any international into school, but we no longer offer those classes. t.u. does and got her into school. We lost another top commit to o.u.for next fall because they offer Duolingo which is far easier. We are losing very good recruits on academic technicalities which is very unfair.

In addition to already not having indoor courts to use as a perk
