Well I know with lots of my daughters friends they couldn't get into UT. They now only take top 8% as automatic admission. More of her friends and alumni kids this year went out of state or private universities. When we went on a campus visit last spring they specifically told us that it doesn't matter who your parents are, they want diversity and unique. I think this reflects in the Greeklife culture specifically in this environment and city where for more and more it really isn't their thing. My daughter also had several friends who thought it would be to hard to juggle sorority and classwork especially her good friends that got into McCombs business school.
We are still trying to figure what she will want to balance should she get in here this year or if she chooses to go elsewhere.
Getting accepted at UT is so difficult now. My high school senior daughter has decided on Florida or Auburn. Most of her friends are going out of state next year. And they all have great test scores,GPAs, etc. They simply aren't in the top 8% at their competitive schools.
