Saw that engineering decisions are starting to roll out beginning last Friday (11/11) it appears. Anyone from admissions care to provide any insight into when more decisions will be coming out? Will they happen on a rolling basis moving forward now? They seem to be ahead of schedule since they have said all along that it would be mid-December before early action decisions started to come out.

We were able to get some Engineering decisions made early. However, it will still be December before most of the other decisions will be made.

Thanks for the quick reply. Can you share what pool of students were the first to receive notification? Were they top10%, academic adits, a mix? Certain majors reviewed first? Also, can you share more about what is being reviewed for in the process?

Thanks.

Many of them were national scholars. However, some others (including applying to other majors) have been finished a little early. Mid-December is still the timeline when remaining early action decisions for Engineering will be going out.

We evaluate class rank (not specifically GPA), test scores and everything else submitted with your application - outside activities, leadership, employment, the essays, etc.

Is there any particular order they are reviewing the applicants? My friend's son is a review candidate and Biomedical Engineering was his first choice and received an acceptance letter on Wednesday. They were surprised at how early. Now my son is freaking out thinking he is going to be denied. He is a Computer Science first choice and Computer Engineering second choice. His AIS just keeps saying his application is complete and in for review. Anyone child applying Computer Science and received a decision yet?

@TAMUAdmissions : You will there be any decisions being now and mid-December or will the remainder all come out at the same time?

Thanks!

There is not a particular order to the decisions going out. A&M is trying to get the early action decisions for Engineering completed by mid-December. If we are able to get some more done early, we certainly will post them to AIS. We know waiting is difficult - applicants just need to check their AIS page from time to time.
