Have any of you admitted gotten info on this year's events? Specifically, wondering when admit weekend is this year. Thanks
An AdCom member wrote on the class of 2015 Facebook page, "One item I'd like to address is the distinction between Texas Friday (Feb. 8th) and Preview Weekend (April 5th & 6th).
Texas Friday: This day is just for Round 1 admitted students. It is a special day devoted to meeting you and offering you a glimpse into our program. We encourage all 1st round candidates to attend, especially if you have yet to decided whether or not to attend McCombs. This day will be especially useful for the undecided to help them clarify their choice before the Feb. 14th decision deadline.
Preview Weekend: As your decision deadline will have already passed, plan to attend this day only if you are already certain you will be attending McCombs. If so, then as Jazmin mentioned, this multi-day event is a bit more in depth and comprehensive then the one-day Texas Friday. A lot of the content will be the same, though this event offers a special dual track for spouses/significant others of prospective students (involving tours and info events led by current spouses/significant others in the Spouses and Significant Others student organization). This event also offers more out-on-the-town excursions into our great city.
So choose which one best fits you, and we hope to see you at either!"
